I Been in Sorrow's Kitchen and Licked Out All the Pots by Susan Straight

It's very possible that this is a great story, but after 70 pages I just can't warm up to it. So...on to my next selection.

This is a really lovely novel. I really enjoy Susan Straight's usage of Gullah. In general the language in this book is very beautiful, compelling and well worth the read. I will say that if you are a person who has trouble reading dialects this book may not be for you. If you have read Irvine Welsh's books and had trouble this one may take some time.
