The Sweetness of Water

I think books like this only come once every few years. It was a delight to read the author's prose is fantastic and the story is fantastic. I do not generally give five star reviews unless the book is something magical that tells a great story and one that stays with you for awhile. This is one of those books.
I was a bit hesitant to read as it was an Oprah Book Club choice. I am glad I took the chance on it. Seriously a great read and one that should become a classic. It is a book of hope and how we should treat one another.
