About the Book

From the celebrated author of The Nightingale and The Four Winds comes Kristin Hannah's The Women―at once an intimate portrait of coming of age in a dangerous time and an epic tale of a nation divided.

Women can be heroes. When twenty-year-old nursing student Frances “Frankie” McGrath hears these words, it is a revelation. Raised in the sun-drenched, idyllic world of Southern California and sheltered by her conservative parents, she has always prided herself on doing the right thing. But in 1965, the world is changing, and she suddenly dares to imagine a different future for herself. When her brother ships out to serve in Vietnam, she joins the Army Nurse Corps and follows his path.

As green and inexperienced as the men sent to Vietnam to fight, Frankie is over-whelmed by the chaos and destruction of war. Each day is a gamble of life and death, hope and betrayal; friendships run deep and can be shattered in an instant. In war, she meets―and becomes one of―the lucky, the brave, the broken, and the lost.

But war is just the beginning for Frankie and her veteran friends. The real battle lies in coming home to a changed and divided America, to angry protesters, and to a country that wants to forget Vietnam.

The Women is the story of one woman gone to war, but it shines a light on all women who put themselves in harm’s way and whose sacrifice and commitment to their country has too often been forgotten. A novel about deep friendships and bold patriotism, The Women is a richly drawn story with a memorable heroine whose idealism and courage under fire will come to define an era.

great book

Really enjoyed reading this! Badass characters, vivid and heartbreaking storytelling, and a message worth sharing. This book was hard to put down, and the story was excellent.

The writing is a bit flowery, and occasionally so cheesy that it threw me out of the story, but it was always very easy to get right back in.

It was very fun to open the gifts as I read. They were well chosen - a mix of things meaningful within the book and things I’m genuinely looking forward to using, irrespective of the book.

This was a very fun experience, and I will purchase more boxes in the future.

A fantastic way to read this harrowing story!

I had been wanting to read The Woman and was so excited to see it as one the selections. I enjoyed the story with the gifts so much that I purchased one for my mother’s birthday. I can’t wait for my Wuthering Heights box!
