Description

When Stars Rain Down by Angela Jackson-Brown is a powerful and timely novel that explores America's tragic past. Set in a small Southern town in 1930s Georgia, the story follows Opal Pruitt as she navigates love, loss, and a harsh awakening to an ugly world. The summer of 1936 brings unseasonable heat and a sense of foreboding to Parsons, where Opal works as a housekeeper for Miss Peggy. As the Ku Klux Klan descends on her neighborhood, Opal is forced to confront the unspoken codes of conduct in her post-Reconstruction era town. Torn between two unexpected romantic interests, she holds tight to her family and faith - and the hope for change. A beautifully written stand-alone novel, When Stars Rain Down includes discussion questions for book clubs, making it an ideal choice for readers looking for a thought-provoking and emotionally charged story.
