Film Adaptation: Where the Crawdads Sing

Where the Crawdads Sings is a novel by Delia Owens, that sits in many genres; Mystery, Literary Fiction, and Bildungsroman. That follows the short life of a resilient young girl abandoned by those who were supposed to love her, and raised by the marsh that surrounded her. From every which way she turned there was darkness where people should have been, and obstacles no child should have to face. And in spite of it all, she grew into an intelligent young woman whose soul was so blindingly pure it could break you in two. Scattered through the chapters of Kyra Clark’s life was another story that intertwined, a murder mystery some find too hard to solve and keeps you guessing more than you’d like. Whatever happened to Chase Andrews?
