NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELERFive women, one passion, and the unbreakable bond of friendship When five young mothers--Frankie, Linda, Kath, Ally, and Brett--first meet in a neighborhood park in the late 1960s, their conversations center on marriage, raising children, and a shared love of books. Then one evening, as they gather to watch the Miss America Pageant, Linda admits that she aspires to write a novel herself, and the Wednesday Sisters Writing Society is born. The five women slowly, and often reluctantly, start filling journals, sliding pages into typewriters, and sharing their work.
