I definitely understand why this one is such a classic. The voice in this one is so strong, and I had to really slow down and savor the dialogue (it's written in such a strong dialect, you can't rush through it!) and the storyline. It's a feminist novel if I've ever read one, and before its time, too, which makes it even more powerful to read. Highly recommend this one. It's beautifully written, moving, and rich.
