Krátky popis
",An important and vital story",-- Donna Everhart, USA Today
bestselling author of The Saints of Swallow Hill A searing book
club read for fans of Ellen Marie Wiseman and The Girls with No
Names set in the Baby Scoop Era of 1960s and the women of a certain
condition swept up in a dark history. It's the 1960s and Lorraine
Delford has it all - an upstanding family, a perfect boyfriend, and
a white picket fence home in North Carolina. Yet every time she
looks through her father's telescope, she dreams of the stars. It's
ambitious, but Lorraine has always been exceptional. But when this
darling girl-next-door gets pregnant, she's forced to learn
firsthand the realities that keep women grounded. To hide their
daughter's secret shame, the Delfords send Lorraine to a maternity
home for wayward girls. But this is no safe haven - it's a house
with dark secrets and suffocating rules. And as Lorraine begins to
piece together a new vision for her life, she must decide if she
can fight against the powers that aim to take her child or submit
to the rules of a society she once admired. Powerful and affecting,
The Girls We Sent Away is a timely novel that explores autonomy,
belonging, and a quest for agency when the illusions of
life-as-you-know-it fall away.
