The Help (Kathryn Stockett) Important Character
The Help written by Kathryn Stockett is a beautiful but noble look into the racism towards coloured maids in Jackson Mississippi during the 1960s. An distinguished pillow slip who helped to develop much of the plot-line is rough Hilbrook. Hilly becomes an important character through her talent for nasty chitchat, her power over people and the insecurities she has roughly herself . She whatsoeverhow manages to still seem cute and innocent and is described as, 1 a those grown ladys that still dress equal a petite girl with big bows and matching hats and such. She aint my favourite. The main reason Hilly becomes such an unforgettable villain is beca utilize of her talent for gossip. Part of Hillys personality is her ability to prepare people listen and once that happens, (even if its but whispered ), it spreads through the townsfolk like wildfire. She give star a her little a-hems she got this way a clearing her throat real delicate-like that get everybodies attention wi th come out of the closet them even knowin she make em do it. I think this is also something that people idler easily relate to, especially at High School where instances like this happen every day, with a horrible after affect.There is one character in particular who gets the sting in tail of Hillys gossip and that character is Minny Jackson, known as the best cook in Mississippi. The only reason she isnt the most popular choice for someone looking to contain a maid is because of Hilly spreading vicious rumours. Hilly treasured Minny to work for her, so she falsely spread it round town that Minny take from Hillys mother who was Minnys old employer, causing everyone to turn their noses up when Minny applied for a job, therefore forcing her back to Hilly.Hilly makes all the rules. If she has something, then everyone else wants that something too Hilly was the world-class of the girls to withstand a baby, and it must gain come out of her like the forth commandent, because on ce Hilly had one, all them other girls had to have one too. She started the Home help Sanitation Initiative that required white houses to have a separate bathroom for the black help, as a disease-preventative measure. oneness of her closest followers k new(a) she couldnt afford it, but in order non to issappoint Hilly, pulled money out of her daughters college fund in order to pay for the new bathroom. Hilly is terrified of losing her status and her title as top chase after Chairman of the Jackson Junior League . Her fear rules her life so in turn rules everybody elses. The hero of the story wants to be a writer, so she writes a book well-nigh their town from the maids point of view. In the book some awful things are written about Hilly that are for the first half of the book simply referred to as the terrible alful committed by Minny who was seeking revenge once she knew Hilly had beaten her.Hilly knows that this would alone destroy her reputation if anyone ever figured out it was about her. This causes her to use all her power to try and convince everybody that the book is not about Jackson The Character of Hilly is made memorable through Kathryn Stockett curious style of writing. She allows the reader to visualise the town of Jackson with all its gaudy characters, of which Hilly was one of the most vivid.
