  1. The Four Winds- an Epic Historical Fiction by Kristin Hannah There are quite a few books that illustrate with brilliance the struggles of families worldwide during the Great Depression. One thing that every such book agrees upon is that it was not a good time. Families suffered and lives were lost. However, many lives fought till their last breath for their families and themselves. “The Four Winds” is about the story of one such woman. The book is set in Texas and follows the life of Elsa and her family as they battle the Great Depression. Kristen Hannah brings to life this amazing story and shows exactly what people had to go through in that era with authenticity. Plot Elsa has a beautiful life in Texas that she had earned herself. She had to start from scratch and build a land that was worthy of much envy from her contemporaries. She took time to develop her relationships as well. Even though not much about her husband is mentioned

Starting from her early pregnancy that obstructed her dream of attending college to establishing a stable livelihood in Texas, Elsa’s life had not been an easy-flowing one, but her indomitable spirit always picked her up and kept her moving forward. Things were going pretty good for Elsa and her family till the crops started to dry out. Food started to lack in quantity and soon the Depression reached Elsa’s family and Elsa was faced with one of the hardest decisions she was to ever make. She either had to leave Texas, leaving behind her hard-earned life, and everything she had worked so hard for through the years, or she could stay in Texas, waiting for things to turn around. The latter did not seem like a wise decision and survival became more important than sentiments. Elsa sets out on her journey to California with her two children.
