The Ladies' Lending Library

By (author) Janice Kulyk Keefer






| book description |

In the tradition of The Ya-Ya Sisterhood and Steel Magnolias, The Ladies Lending Library is a bittersweet tale of mothers, daughters, friends and lovers across the long, languorous summer of 1963.In the summer of 1963, the year of the sensational release of the film Cleopatra , the women of Ontario's Kalyna Beach prepare for their annual end-of-season party. With their husbands away in the city all week, the women's days are ruled by the predictable rhythms of children and chores, lightened by the 'racy' books they trade amongst themselves and by their Friday afternoon gatherings for gin and gossip.But this is the summer when everything will change for the girls and women of Kalyna Beach, as innocence is exchanged for a new understanding of the possibilities open to them all.
