Plantation: A Lowcountry Tale is a historical novel written by Dorothea Benton Frank. Written in 1935, it tells the story of a woman and her family living on a plantation in the mid-19th century.

Plantation: A Lowcountry Tale is the story of two women, one white and one black, both living on plantations in Virginia during the 1820s. One woman is trying to escape the past while the other is reluctant to move into the future. Plantation explores themes of racism, classism and sex trafficking through a narrative perspective of both women's stories. The narration was good and well paced - I would like to have had some sort of background info/setting for what was happening as it took place over 200 years ago.

The audiobook version of Plantation: A Lowcountry Tale is narrated by Susie Breck, and her performance is a delight. Her voice has a rich, deep tone that makes you feel right at home. The narration is so good, in fact, that it's hard to believe that Susie has never read the book before. She doesn't read like a professional narrator seeking to make every word sound perfect. Instead, she reads with all the charm of someone who adores the text they're reading and wants you to know it too.
