Summary: It's a Southern Thing
Comment: Peachtree Road is like an extremely tall ice tea on a blistering southern day. It is long, and drawn out at times, but so cool and refreshing. If you do not like descriptive narrative this book may not work for you. Personally, I think that it it exemplifies the southern tradition of storytelling. Life down there is (was) a bit slower and everyone takes their time with things. Yes, it did take a while to hook into the story, but having read Siddons before I knew that her characters are so vivid that it would be worth it. I found the lonliness of Shep very disturbing and ultimately got a bit fed up with Lucy. Still, I can almost hear her voice as she calls him on the phone. Being an optimist, I like to think that he did find some peace with Sarah. I loved the ending of the book and I think that Siddons achieved a monumentous task. If you enjoy a deep emotional read than this book will deliver.

Summary: A good old story that you will never forget
Comment: Thank you Ms. Siddons! I haven't enjoyed a book like this since I read The Prince of Tides. It was Conroy's quote on the cover, "the Southern novel for our generation," that prompted me to read it. I am so glad I did!! I haven't laughed and cried during a read in some time. The characters are as real as rain...they will not leave me ever. The plot is artfully crafted. I urge readers to read the book from cover to cover if you have a deep interest in the South and enjoy a good story...it's a journey worth taking! Having schooled at Vanderbilt, I can testify to the accuracy of Siddons's portrayal of the wealthy South.
