Jojo Moyes - The Giver of Stars
The brand-new standalone novel from the Number One bestselling author of Me
Before You, After You and Still Me England, late 1930s, and Alice Wright -
restless, stifled - makes an impulsive decision to marry wealthy American
Bennett Van Cleve and leave her home and family behind. But stuffy, disapproving
Baileyville, Kentucky, where her husband favours work over his wife and is
dominated by his overbearing father, is not the adventure - or the escape - that
she hoped for. That is, until she meets Margery O'Hare, a troublesome woman -
and daughter of a notorious felon - the town wishes to forget. Margery's on a
mission to spread the wonder of books and reading to the poor and lost - and she
needs Alice's help. Trekking alone under big open skies, through wild mountain
forests, Alice, Margery and their fellow sisters of the trail discover freedom,
friendship - and a life to call their own. But when the town turns against them,
will their belief in one another - and the power of the written word - be enough
to save them?
