#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER | A REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK
“A great narrative about personal strength and really captures how books bring communities together.” —Reese Witherspoon
From the writer of the forthcoming Someone Else’s Shoes, a wide ranging story of 5 extraordinary girls and their exceptional journey by means of the mountains of Kentucky and past in Depression-era America
Alice Wright marries good-looking American Bennett Van Cleve, hoping to flee her stifling life in England. But small-town Kentucky rapidly proves equally claustrophobic, particularly residing alongside her overbearing father-in-law. So when a name goes out for a group of girls to ship books as half of Eleanor Roosevelt’s new touring library, Alice indicators on enthusiastically.
The chief, and shortly Alice’s biggest ally, is Margery, a smart-talking, self-sufficient lady who’s by no means requested a person’s permission for something. They will probably be joined by three different singular girls who grow to be referred to as the Packhorse Librarians of Kentucky.
What occurs to them–and to the lads they love–becomes an unforgettable drama of loyalty, justice, humanity, and fervour. These heroic girls refuse to be cowed by males or by conference. And although they face every kind of risks in a panorama that’s at occasions breathtakingly lovely, at others brutal, they’re dedicated to their job: bringing books to individuals who have by no means had any, arming them with details that can change their lives.
Based on a real story rooted in America’s previous, The Giver of Stars is unparalleled in its scope and epic in its storytelling. Funny, heartbreaking, enthralling, it’s destined to grow to be a contemporary classic–a richly rewarding novel of girls’s friendship, of real love, and of what occurs once we attain past our grasp for the nice past.
