Jetta Carleton's The Moonflower Vine
If I hadn't known this was a reissued book that was first published in 1962, I'd never have guessed--it has a very funny, contemporary feel. It starts with three sisters visiting their aging parents on their small Missouri farm, and flashes back to tell the family's whole story. I totally loved it, though had mixed feelings about the end, which force me to give it an A-. Has anyone else read it? I'm dying to discuss it!
