Review
"This generous and inventive book is a delight to read, an evocation of the power of friendship to sustain, encourage, and embolden us. Join the sisterhood!"
- Karen Joy Fowler, author of "The Jane Austen Book Club"
"I read "The Wednesday "Sisters in one delicious gulp. With a smart, entrancing voice, Meg Waite Clayton sweeps us into the world of the tumultuous 1960's and beyond, and gives us the gift of five young women coming into their own as friends, mothers, wives and writers. "The Wednesday Sisters" takes their writing group as its core, and up until the last page, I found myself fervently rooting for each of them as if they were my friends too." -- Lalita Tademy, author of "Red River" and "Cane River"
"Long before there were book clubs and play dates, there were the Wednesday Sisters-a group of women whose shared love of literature transports them above the pains and pitfalls of ordinary life. While these women may seem like typical suburban housewives, each character has an intriguing secret and a rich interior life that drew me into the story and held me there. This remarkable group of women demonstrates that no matter what period of history in which we live, no matter what race, creed or class we are, no matter what pains we endure, our one unifying salvation can be books. And this book reminded me of why I love to read." - Lolly Winston, author of "Good Grief" and "Happiness Sold Separately" "Meg Waite Clayton gives us a group of spunky women-mostly young, married mothers-who make the unlikely decision in 1967 to form a writers' group. Their diverse journeys over the next years in their writing and in their lives add up to a compelling and deeply moving testament to the power of women's friendships. I simply couldn't put The Wednesday Sisters down until I'd turned the last page."
- Ellen Baker, author of "Keeping the House"
"Richly intelligent, deeply felt and incandescently original, Clayton's book is a rhapsodic story of female friendship, set against wildly changing times and mores. Not only is the book heartbreaking, funny, and undeniably smart, but truly, this is the kind of book you don't just want to pass on to all your friends. You "have" to." - Caroline Leavitt, author of "Girls in Trouble" and "Coming Back to Me"
"From the Hardcover edition."
"This generous and inventive book is a delight to read, an evocation of the power of friendship to sustain, encourage, and embolden us. Join the sisterhood!" --Karen Joy Fowler, author of The Jane Austen Book Club
