This novel grabs you from the beginning. Truly is a very large baby, destined to be an enormous grown woman. Her mother dies giving birth, and her father dies when she is twelve, leaving her and her petite sister to be taken in by local families. Their divergent lives further deepen the gap between them and Truly forges an existence on a run down farm as her sister marries the doctor's son.
A story of great cruelty, and great fortitude, it is difficult to get it out of your head.
