Title: Don't let the odd title put you off
Review: An excellent author will lead you to their other novels, as Ms. Dallas did for me.The Persian Pickle Club is a 1930 depression era quilt club, but the soul of the club are the women of the town in Harveyville, Kansas. The club is a friendship foundation, support group and charity network that goes beyond these implications. We are allowed an extremely poignant glimpse into the lives of these women, and the unique pecking order, so to speak that has been established within the context of the club.While somewhat annoying, certain characters that make up the group will certainly grate on your tolerance. But a subtle understanding is promoted as one continues to unravel the secrets and relationships that the group protects. Friendships within the group mean everything to these women, and the sacrifices they go through on behalf of each other is truly wonderful.
