About this title: Born in rural North Carolina in 1900 and telling her tale in the present tense, Roxanna Slade relates the story of a woman whom her friends and family mostly consider a "saint." Toward the end of her life, however, she is at pains to explain why she's been both less and more than a mere saint. A New York Times Notable Book for 1998.

"Ugh. It took me a really long time to read this book - the public library can attest to that. I read it on the suggestion of my 11th grade English teacher, Ms. Allen, whom I loved dearly. She was a huge Reynolds Price fan."
"By far, one of the best pieces of Southern literature I have chosen to read. Thoroughly enjoyable, filled to over-flowing with intense emotion, at times almost too much to bear. Wonderfully narrated, nearly unnerving that any man could seem to know a woman so well."
