Mudbound by Hillary Jordan is a extremely well written and thought provoking novel.
The literary structure of this book is very compelling, telling the same story from the perspective of the different characters really brings out the emotion of this Novel. A tough read but a rewarding one and a book where the characters will stay with me.
The characters are fully developed and very real and I was able to visualise each and every one of them. A gripping story of race relations, families, marriage, and war, a story that I found heartbreaking and shocking.
As I always say "Its good to be shocked every now and then".
I recently watched the movie of this book and it was extremely well done.
I read this as a book club read and I think it will make for a great discussion.
