This book is a fast, exciting read. It also is an upsetting one, viewed from 2019 looking back at 1962. The two main characters are compelling. But the men around them are not well drawn out, especially the husband of one of the characters who is almost a cardboard cartoon character. The picture of rural poverty and how those in power respond to it is well drawn. And the case against involuntary sterilization is well presented.
