I liked the characters immensely and felt drawn to Leah and her struggles to connect with the sisters who are different than her. She works on a farm because she is a widow and is raising two children. Life is hard during the depression years. I found many similarities between the challenges then and the challenges now. It’s all about connection, hood and faith. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique

When the bishop calls Leah Sorensen to be Relief Society president, her first impulse is to assume he's joking. "They'd all vote against me if you put my name up," she tells him, "and I'd vote with them." She's prickly and proud, a farm widow who doesn't get along with the town women at all. Why would the Lord want her? Because it's 1932, the depth of the Great Depression, and, as the bishop tells Leah: "You lost your husband and you didn't give up. You know how to survive hard times, and some women in our ward don't. I'm not looking for a nice church lady right now. I'm looking for someone with some grit, and that's what you've got." But will frit be enough when the opposition begins? Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
