Critics Thoughts Some critics say that this book was wrote out in great southern literature. A man by the name of John Houston loved the book so much that he made a movie about it. One critic said that this novel was written grotesques. And that she tied in the religion very well.

My Thoughts Personally I didnt like the book at all. I would only recommend this book to somebody that will read this book and not care about the religious parts that this books contains. This book though did have some comedy in it.
