Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Kathryn Stockett's first novel since the global bestselling phenomenon THE HELP- the sweeping story of a group of underestimated women and an 11-year-old orphan girl whose fates converge in Mississippi in 1933Oxford, Mississippi, 1933.Eleven-year-old Meg Lefleur has learned the hard way to rely on no one.Ever since her beloved mother failed to come home last Christmas Eve, she's been one of the 'unadoptable' girls at the town's orphanage, where she fights each day to keep her wits sharp and her spirit unbowed.When she meets Birdie, a young woman who has come to Oxford determined to remind her socialite sister of the impoverished family she left behind, for the first time in a long while it seems someone else might care about Meg's future.But as the Depression tightens its grip, Birdie begins to suspect her sister's charmed life may be founded on a tapestry of lies. Then, Birdie encounters Charlie, a woman haunted by loss who has been pushed to the brink with nothing left to lose.Drawn together by circumstance, they find unexpected kinship among a disreputable, determined band of women.But in a town steeped in hypocrisy, even the smallest act of defiance can have dangerous consequences .Bold, heartwarming, and riotously funny, The Calamity Club is an unforgettable story of resilience and friendship, and a sisterhood of underestimated women who risk everything to take back control of their fates.
