A Painted House
by John Grisham
This is a true departure from his legal thrillers. Nary an attorney in sight, no courts, no Mafia, no big sinister corporations - just the languorous heat of an Arkansas delta summer-fall, and a crop of cotton to get picked before the weather turns nasty and 6 months of hard back-breaking work are washed away. Luke, at age 7, is a marvelous narrator. The characters are so life-like. Grisham can't completely abandon murder and intrigue, but it is just a small part of the whole here. Our book club really enjoyed this book.
