The Coastal Bookshelf Recommended Powerful Currents in Literature The Calamity Club by Kathryn Stockett Reviewed by Denise Copeland S arah Kathryn Stockett waited seventeen years to publish a second novel, which places a rather un- forgiving burden on The Calamity Club before its characters have even entered the room.

made The Help so readable: an ear for Southern speech, a sharp eye for social hypocrisy and an abiding interest in women whom respectable society has badly under- estimated.
