Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1965, The Keepers of the House is Shirley Ann Grau's masterwork, a many-layered indictment of racism and rage that is as terrifying as it is wise.

Entrenched on the same land since the early 1800s, the Howlands have, for seven generations, been pillars of their Southern community. Extraordinary family lore has been passed down to Abigail Howland, but not all of it. When shocking facts come to light about her late grandfather William's relationship with Margaret Carmichael, a black housekeeper, the community is outraged, and quickly gathers to vent its fury on Abigail. Alone in the house the Howlands built, she is at once shaken by those who have betrayed her, and determined to punish the town that has persecuted her and her kin.

Morally intricate, graceful and suspenseful, The Keepers of the House has become a modern classic.

Huge box of spoons that actually hold up!
My patience started wearing thin as a result of having to always keep buying spoons due to all the cereal and yogurt that the volunteers have each morning. Finally, I decided to buy these gigantic boxes just to be over with it once and for all. These spoons are surprisingly durable given the extremely low price and the fact that they are just disposable plastic utensils. I tried using one on some dense frozen ice cream yesterday evening, and the handle did not even flex at all, let alone break. This product comes packaged in a fairly frail cardboard box which makes it occupy quite a bit of floor space in the pantry. Nevertheless, I find it completely worthwhile.

Great Bulk Pack of Disposable Spoons
These is a nice bulk pack of disposable spoons, and at a great price value. They are light weight, sturdy, BPA free spoons that conveint and safe to use everyday. My daughter is finishes her 9th grade school year in a couple of weeks, and when she is done we are have a small ice cream party. Which, is why I got these spoons. They will be perfect for the party and clean up will be very easy. Overall, I am happy that I got these spoons. I would recommend them to anyone who needs a bulk quantity of good quality spoons, and I don't have anything bad to say about them at all.

Good price
For a thousand spoons, you can’t do better. It’s a great value for the price. They’re not the most durable spoons, but they’ll handle a family reunion with ease. If you need them for the office or a reunion, or you just don’t want to do dishes, you really can’t beat it. Eventually I’ll buy them again.
