For our last book, Pigeon English, people felt it was a world that is hard to comprehend but those with experience of this type of community felt is was authentic and the situations were not as unusual as you'd hope. Many (but not all) warmed to the character's naivety and funny situations.
Our next book is Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier
" Rebecca is a Gothic novel by English author Dame Daphne du Maurier. A best-seller, Rebecca sold 2.8 million copies between its publication in 1938 and 1965, and the book has never gone out of print." Wikipedia
