Set in Bigelow, Arkansas, Sugar takes the reader on a heartfelt journey through poetic pain and the lives of Sugar Lacey and Pearl Taylor (primarily), and a host of others (secondarily). Sugar's deleterious childhood, overwhelmed by scars and filled with a level of isolation that steals her youth and ultimately her identity, contributes to the creating of the wayward woman she becomes. Pearl, we learn early in the novel, struggles with her own isolation, but unlike Sugar's, hers is involuntarily self-imposed, developed after the tragic and brutal murder of her daughter, Jude. This isolation is not so much about staying out of the company of others (she finds both companionship and solace in church), or even being an effective mother to her other children (Seth, her son, speaks on this point in a single but precise statement later in the book), as it is about withdrawing into herself. Pearl's actions and personality scream depression but McFadden is careful not to label her, allowing the emotional wave we ride with Pearl to reveal, by layer, her quiet but obvious struggle. This internal conflict catapults Pearl into a place from which she cannot easily escape until Sugar crosses her path forming and firming an unusual friendship and, progressively, the voids they've carried are seemingly filled. Well, I went into the book with zero expectations and was quite surprised by how it progressed. Yeah, it was slow, and I sped-read through most of it. But I saw all that I was supposed to see and know. The writing is raw, brazen, and rustic. It suits the setting, timeline, and characters. However, I can't rate it more than 3 stars because it would have bored me if I went with the actual pace. The prose needed some tightening.
