Join the Book Readers on Wednesday, Oct. 12, at 10:30 am in the Meeting Room to discuss The
Four Winds by Kristin Hannah. Patti Christensen will lead the discussion.
Texas, 1934. Millions are out of work and a drought has broken the Great Plains. Farmers are
fighting to keep their land and their livelihoods as the crops are failing, the water is drying up, and
dust threatens to bury them all. One of the darkest periods of the Great Depression, the Dust Bowl
era, has arrived with a vengeance.
In this uncertain and dangerous time, Elsa Martinelli, like so many of her neighbors, must
make an agonizing choice: fight for the land she loves or go west, to California, in search of a better
life. The Four Winds is an indelible portrait of America and the American Dream as seen through
the eyes of one indomitable woman whose courage and sacrifice will come to define a generation.
November's book is A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith.
