Elsa Wolcott, a Texas Panhandle farmer's wife during the Great Depression and Dust Bowl, must choose between staying on the land that is killing her and her family, or heading to California with the tide of migrants seeking a better life. Hannah's novel is both a love letter to The Grapes of Wrath and a portrait of women's wartime and Depression-era resilience.
