Reviews
Review this book!
On Mar 19, 2015, TimKayson said
Lydia McQueen should be on the short list of of great American literary characters. Now that's just my opinion but Lyddy, as her family and friends in Wilma Dykeman's The Tall Woman call her is good, strong, brave, heroic, and long suffering. In Dykeman's tale about post-Civil War Appalachia Lydia McQueen survives unwanted suitors, betrayal, mountain bandits and the death of her beloved son David. Through each of these experience Dykeman's character becomes ever more chiseled and clarified as an example of what we should all become. Throughout this tale Dykeman weaves a picture of natural mountain beauty that alone should bring you to this wonderful book. Pick it up, read it, and treasure your acquaintance with Lydia McQueen.
