The Giver of Stars: Reese’s Book Club (A Novel)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cA great narrative about personal strength and really captures how books bring communities together.\u201d \u2014Reese Witherspoon<\/span><\/p>\n

From the author of the forthcoming\u00a0<\/span>Someone Else\u2019s Shoes<\/span>, a breathtaking story of five extraordinary women and their remarkable journey through the mountains of Kentucky and beyond in Depression-era America
\n<\/span>
\nAlice Wright marries handsome American Bennett Van Cleve, hoping to escape her stifling life in England.\u00a0 But small-town Kentucky quickly proves equally claustrophobic, especially living alongside her overbearing father-in-law. So when a call goes out for a team of women to deliver books as part of Eleanor Roosevelt\u2019s new traveling library, Alice signs on enthusiastically.<\/p>\n

The leader, and soon Alice’s greatest ally, is Margery, a smart-talking, self-sufficient woman who’s never asked a man’s permission for anything. They will be joined by three other singular women who become known as the Packhorse Librarians of Kentucky.<\/p>\n

What happens to them–and to the men they love–becomes an unforgettable drama of loyalty, justice, humanity, and passion. These heroic women refuse to be cowed by men or by convention. And though they face all kinds of dangers in a landscape that is at times breathtakingly beautiful, at others brutal, they\u2019re committed to their job: bringing books to people who have never had any, arming them with facts that will change their lives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":54290,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":""},"product_cat":[23],"product_tag":[],"yoast_head":"\nThe Giver of Stars: Reese's Book Club (A Novel) -
