The Help is a 2009 novel by American author Kathryn Stockett. It is about African American maids working in white households in Jackson, Mississippi during the early 1960s.
The novel is told from the point of view of three narrators: Aibileen Clark, a middle-aged African-American maid who has spent her life raising white children, and who has recently lost her only son; Minny Jackson, an African-American maid whose back-talk towards her employers results in her having to frequently change jobs, exacerbating her desperate need for work as well as her family’s struggle with money; and Eugenia “Skeeter” Phelan, a young white woman and recent college graduate who, after moving back home, discovers that a maid that helped raise her since childhood has abruptly disappeared and her attempts to find her have come to nought. The stories of the three women intertwine to explain how life in Jackson, Mississippi revolves around “the help”, with complex relations of power, money, emotion, and intimacy tying together the white and black families of Jackson.
A USA Today article calls it one of 2009’s “summer sleeper hits” and notes that the book is climbing bestseller lists.[1] An early review in The New York Times notes Stockett’s “affection and intimacy buried beneath even the most seemingly impersonal household connections” and says the book is a “button-pushing, soon to be wildly popular novel”.[2] The Atlanta Journal-Constitution said of the book, “This heartbreaking story is a stunning debut from a gifted talent”.[3]
The novel is Stockett’s first. It took her five years to complete the book, which was rejected by at least 45 literary agents.[4] The Help has since been published in 35 countries and three languages.[5] As of May 27, 2010, it had spent a full year on the Los Angeles Times bestseller list and was sitting at #1.[6]
