About the book
Set in the sweltering Mississippi Delta of 1933, The Calamity Club unfolds against the desperation of the Great Depression. Twenty-four-year-old Birdina “Birdie” Calhoun — outspoken and forever underestimated — arrives in Oxford determined to remind her socialite sister of the impoverished family she left behind. There she crosses paths with eleven-year-old Meg Lefleur, abandoned to the Lafayette County Orphan Asylum, and with Charlie, a woman down on her luck with little left to lose.
As the Depression tightens its grip, Birdie begins to suspect that her sister’s charmed life rests on a tapestry of lies. When the fates of the three women converge, Charlie hatches an audacious plan to take control of their lives. Rich, tender and defiant, the novel explores family loyalty, injustice, and the fierce bonds between women who refuse to be broken.
