Title : The Wind Will Carry Us - Moyes Jojo - Book
Summary :
Driven by a thirst for adventure and wide open spaces, Alice falls in love with a handsome American man and eagerly accepts his marriage proposal, leaving behind her dusty England. But the American dream is put to the test during the Great Depression in the small Kentucky town where she lands, between a disappointing husband and a shady stepfather.
So, when the young woman answers Eleanor Roosevelt's call to create traveling libraries to combat illiteracy, it's primarily to escape her stifling daily life. She then befriends Margery, a woman who fears nothing and no one. Together, they throw themselves into the adventure and crisscross the Kentucky mountains on horseback, braving all dangers, to bring books to the most remote areas. But if there's one thing these storytellers don't lack, it's courage.
A deeply moving novel about the epic of culture and female emancipation.
