Stockett's masterfully drawn characters are simply unforgettable. Bravo to Meg, Birdie, and Charlie for reminding us to never underestimate the bottomless resilience of smart, spirited women in revolt against circumstance and injustice."-Shelley Read, internationally bestselling author of Go as a River "Compulsively readable ... A satisfyingly twisty tale ... Fans of Stockett's bestselling debut will love this engaging follow-up."-Kirkus "Stockett's vibrant follow-up to her bestselling 2009 novel, The Help, traces the intersecting lives of an exasperated older sister, a precocious orphan, and an enterprising woman in 1933 Mississippi... . By turns hilarious and heartbreaking, this offers a memorable view into the impossible choices faced by women in the Great Depression."-Publishers Weekly "The enormous success of The Help as a novel and as the source for the Academy Award-winning film has left readers longing for Stockett's second novel... . As she did in The Help, Stockett again satirizes the hypocrisy underpinning much of the early-twentieth-century South in a saga populated with memorable characters who rely on stock-in-trade pluck and sass to right all wrongs."-Booklist "A big-hearted tale packed with plenty of details about life in the South during the lead-up to the Great Depression."-Country Living "Stockett balances humor and heartbreak with an ease that makes the pages fly. One moment you're laughing at a perfectly observed social disaster, the next you re sitting with a character in a moment of raw vulnerability. If you're looking for a character-driven novel with southern charm, biting social observation, and a cast of women you'll fall in love with, The Calamity Club absolutely delivers."-Tim Ehrenberg, "Tim Talks Books" |
