pbs books readers club the women by kristin hannah

PBS Books Readers Club welcomes international best-selling author, Kristin Hannah to discuss her powerful and most recent novel The Women. The episode premieres on March 26th at 8PM ET as a PBS Books Facebook Live event, on the PBS Books YouTube channel, pbsbooks.org, and the PBS app. In The Women, Frances “Frankie” McGrath, a twenty-year-old nursing student, impulsively decides to join the Army Nurse Corp after her brother is shipped out to fight in the Vietnam War. Her life is changed forever as she is thrust into the chaos and destruction of war, where friendships are forged, tested and lost. As she faces the violence and trauma of war, Frankie also struggles with the challenge of returning home to a nation torn apart by political division, feeling just as lost and out of place... The Women shines a spotlight on the unsung heroes of the Vietnam War — female nurses who served courageously, risking their lives to care for others in the midst of danger.
