The dialect takes a bit to get used to, but as you learn more about the characters, you realize that it just rounds out your vision of the person. We get to know a number of characters really well, as most have a chapter or more devoted to them and the role they play in the life of Sadie Blue. Sadie's a young girl who has known only the Appalachian culture - and she's made a sad mistake in marrying a monster.The town of Baines Creek has hired a new teacher for the one room school, which brings out the town's feelings about this "jasper", who knows nothing about their ways. Preacher Eli, has known the "different" - having been to the valley for his education. Birdie, the "medicine woman", cures most ills with her vast array of herbs and potions, while walking around with a crow nesting in her topknot. Marris and Gladys, Sadie's grandmother and aunt, have perfected the art of bickering over almost everything. Roy, Sadie's monster-husband, and his sidekick, Billy, are mostly drunk and up to no good - hunting, trapping and minding their still. Roy surfaces to beat Sadie regularly. Sadie's friends and relatives are concerned about her safety, particularly when she becomes pregnant.If the Creek Don't Rise, conveys an authenticity about Appalachian life, that few know about or understand. The reader feels the truth in this tale of life there in the 1970's, and wonders how that culture has progressed. Is it still the land of outhouses and "revenuers" (probably called ATF now)? In this regard, the story is a learning experience, with a desire to learn more.Rarely are readers given such well-rounded descriptions of characters and place. The plot moves along and becomes a page-turner. Weiss's comfortable prose (and the dialect, once you're used to it!) make this a thoroughly comfortable read that you don't want to end. Getting to the end employs some twists and turns and a satisfying conclusion, however. So, will we hear from the good folks of Baines Creek again? This reader hopes so!
I read the majority of reviews and they were predominately favorable. In a nut shell I simply do not understand how any body could possibly enjoy reading this book. I so hoped to like it and unfortunately that was not the case. Surprisingly though, the first chapter piqued my interest. I felt compelled to follow poor Sadie Blue's journey. Hoping she would eventually escape the brutality of her evil husband. However the story line disintegrated when the emphasis was revolved around the characterization of the preacher. It was endless, monotonous, and just plain boring! . Bottom line Sadie's journey had taken a back seat. Clearly this was not a book I would recommend to anyone I know!
I started reading this book last night about 10pm. After reading for a while I went to sleep and then woke up early to start again. The book was finished before 10am. I absolutely loved the story. I felt like I'd just gotten done watching a great movie. The characters all came to life and it left you with that "great book satisfaction" that also leaves you longing for more. I am excited to see more work by this author in the future. I'm glad I took a chance and branched out from my regular authors. I think I have a new favorite.
I absolutely LOVED this novel. The title and book cover on Kindle 'spoke to me' and is very often the case, I was NOT disappointed. I love reading stories that take place in this part of the country - because I know nothing about what it's like to have been born/grow up/live there. There is nothing I can possibly add to the wonderful Editorial reviews, oh how I wish I could write like they do. I am a HUGE highlighter so here are some passages to hopefully whet your appetite. I found the author's writing incandescent.I feel a better, more educated person for having read this novel."A bright spot of sunshine holds her in its beam and shines through her skimpy dress. Her baby bump is the size of a honeydew.""When I'm done, I pull the chew outta my pocket and head to the porch glider like I always do to ponder troubles that stay too long. Sadie showing up jumped her to the head of the worry line.""Marris used to have hair as red as coals cooked down in a fire. Walter would say in a rare time he was being funny, 'You stick dough in hair that red, it woulda baked into a biscuit'"."Church always got a smell bout it that don't sit right with me, and it gives me the itches. Maybe it's that fake hope that hangs in the air, frustrated cause nobody gets much back from praying.""It's strange how some folks tella tale. They go round and round cause the story is a little biddy thing that needs a lot of fluff to make it big enough to be told in the first place. I hate this part of gossiping.""Truth always hurts and it's extra hard to look at late in life."There is the chapter in the novel whereby you learn where the book title came from (which always intrigues me). A child asks "Are we gonna die?" And the mother replies "From a storm? No child. We're safe here." And the father adds "If the good Lord's willing and the creek don't rise." Which is exactly how I heard it growing up."I first heard about a 'murder of crows' at seminary. I came upon many poetic and odd phrases found in literature and mentally filed them away: an ostentation of peacocks, a parliament of owls, a knot of frogs, and a skulk of foxes. My favorite is the crows.""The sun finds the silver strands entwined in her dark hair growing on the head that holds the brain I admire.""If this is what love feels like, why would anyone seek it out and want to hold on to it? It hurts so much I can't breathe right. Food is tasteless. Sleep has been elusive these recent weeks. To move my arms and legs simultaneously is a weighty chore.""More than Nana's feet turned cold that night, and me and my blanket couldn't make her warm. When Nana whispered, "Sweet Jesus, I'm ready," I heard him take her, like an open window with a breeze going out stead of in.""I went to the Asheville library to find the backstory on Appalachia and was directed to a pitifully small section in the dusty stacks. In all I found, the message was repetitious: this has always been an isolated community, stretching across parts of thirteen states, a parallel existence, backward from the civilized world that has morphed into the modern day, leaving these people behind......" "Mamas and mean men shouldn't mess with growing boys."Be sure to read "A Conversation with the Author" after the end of novel....wonderful insight into the author.The ending of the novel is brilliant. Perfect.
The author spent the first 90% of the book building a fascinating story and characters you want to know more about. The last 10% is spent on two unsavory characters and then the book abruptly ends. Abruptly and oddly.You have no idea what happened to the characters you got to know.Maybe she had too much info for one book and decided to do a sequel? I know what started out as a great book ended as a mediocre one.
