The day has finally come! The Calamity Club by Kathryn Stockett, author of the multi-million-copy bestseller, The Help, is on-sale now.
Here’s just a sample of the early praise for the book of the summer.
“So immersive, exciting, and downright fabulous, you never want it to end.”—Oprah Daily
“Smart, funny, and driven by unforgettable characters whose opinions and actions leap off the page, this is a must-read.”—Bonnie Garmus
“A heart-wrenching, often hilarious story of economic hardship, moral posturing and the particular yearnings of childless women and motherless girls.”—The New York Times
Pick up your copy from one of the retailers below, or from your favorite local independent bookstore.
Set in 1930s Depression-era Oxford, Mississippi, The Calamity Club introduces Meg, one of the “big girls” at the Lafayette County Orphan Asylum, who’s learned the hard way to rely on no one; Birdie, an unmarried woman who’s come to Oxford to ask her socialite sister to help the humble family she’s left behind; and Charlie, a woman shaped by loss and pushed to the edge of despair. When their fates converge, they form an unlikely sisterhood, determined to take back control of their lives.
Bold, big-hearted, and riotously funny, The Calamity Club is an epic testament to underestimated women who know that calamity can be the spark of new beginnings and marks the return of one of the most beloved storytellers of our time.
