| Description | Kathryn Stockett’s The Calamity Club is a novel about women in the American South during the Great Depression, whose lives are restricted by poverty and by strict rules of propriety enforced through public scrutiny. The story takes place in Oxford, Mississippi, in 1933. The old order is beginning to crack, although familiar hierarchies still decide who may speak and who must stay silent.
At the centre of the book are women pushed to the margins of local society. Eleven-year-old Meg grows up in an orphanage and fights every day for the right to remain herself. Birdie comes to town to ask for help from a sister who has long chosen a more comfortable life. Charlie tries to survive a past that still follows her. Their meeting leads to a daring plan that could change their fates. Stockett writes about female solidarity and joins social satire with a warm story about people who dare to attempt the impossible. |
