In late 1930s England, Alice Wright makes an impulsive decision to marry wealthy American Bennett Van Cleve, leaving her home and family behind. However, stifling and disapproving Baileyville, Kentucky, is not the adventure she hoped for. Until she meets Margery O'Hare, a troublesome woman on a mission to spread the wonder of books and reading to the poor and lost, and she needs Alice's help. Together, they will discover freedom, friendship, and a life of their own. But when Baileyville turns against them, will their belief in each other and the power of the written word be enough to save them? Inspired by a remarkable true story, 'The Giver of Stars' features five incredible women who will prove to be as beloved as Lou Clark, the unforgettable heroine of 'Me Before You'.
