Story
Three sisters, one birthday, one little problem... The three Kettle sisters have had a mortifying mishap. Their raucous, champagne-soaked birthday dinner has come to an abrupt end following a violent argument and an emergency dash to the hospital. So who started it this time? Was it angry, hurt Cat, still recovering from the 'night of the spaghetti'? Was it Lyn, so serenely successful, at least on the outside? Or was it quirky, dreamy Gemma, the sister who can't keep a secret except for the most important one of all?

Summary
The Four Winds is a deeply moving, powerful story about the strength and resilience of women and the bond between mother and daughter, by the multimillion-copy number one best-selling author of The Nightingale.
She will discover the best of herself in the worst of times....
Texas, 1934. Elsa Martinelli had finally found the life she’d yearned for. A family, a home and a livelihood on a farm on the Great Plains. But when drought threatens all she and her community hold dear, Elsa’s world is shattered to the winds.
Fearful of the future, when Elsa wakes to find her husband has fled, she is forced to make the most agonizing decision of her life. Fight for the land she loves or take her beloved children, Loreda and Ant, west to California in search of a better life. Will it be the land of milk and honey? Or will their experience challenge every ounce of strength they possess?
From the overriding love of a mother for her child, the value of female friendship and the ability to love again - against all odds, Elsa’s incredible journey is a story of survival, hope and what we do for the ones we love.

This story is an amazing journey for the main characters personally and physically. The scene setting is brilliant I feel as though I’ve lived through drought dust storms long treks and encampments by fetid streams. A great story will miss these characters in my life.

The Pandemic of today does not look so bad...
I stayed up all night finishing the last half of this book. As usual Kristin's characters and storytelling are beautiful. The story made me realize what we are going through today with the pandemic is nothing compared to what happened during the Great Depression and Dust Bowl times. The incites into capitalism in America and the attitudes to social injustice are very relevant to what is happening today. Julia does such an excellent job of narrating the book too... I just could not put this book down or stop listening to it I should say!

An addictive listen of hope
I absolutely loved this book, could not stop listening, and devastated to reach the end and finally leave the characters behind. A story of hope through adversity is too much of a cliche for this book because it is so much more. Devastatingly sad at times, but don’t let this put you off, you will full in love with the characters, fume over the cruelty of human greed and smile at our ability over come hardship for the love of our children and families.

Swimming against the tide... i found this dull
The book is long and grew longer and longer as it got into its final tear jerking phase. it felt heavy going and old fashioned in it's final union rousing sections. It's a style of book I used to read a lot of in the mid eighties. Maybe my tastes have changed, but although reasonably well written for most of the book, it became turgid and I could only skim towards the very well signalled and predictable end.

Amazing and gripping
A story, with amazing historical factness to what did happen during the American Great Depression. In listening to the plight, the suffering, and neglect dished out by American states and wealthier citizens I am left wondering if anyone has ever reflected on how truly shocking the treatment was to another fellow human being?
The reason I say this, it's clear with high levels of deprivation in the States now, high levels of unemployment, homelessness and a lack of free medical care, It seems history is just repeating itself? This story will open your eyes to how rock bottom people's lives can get and when it does, what friendship and love truly mean. The story takes you on a very large roller coaster ride with characters and emotions so vividly written about.
The Narration is excellent. But why are more people not saying: Wake up America and stop history from repeating itself with an attitude of, "I'm alright Jack' when levels of deprivation, homelessness, starvation and bigotry to your fellow man is still as rife as this great book details about the Great Depression.

Miserable, Captivating
I was captivated from the get-go. Kristin Hannah sets the scene and character of Elsa beautifully. The stunning performance of the narrator certainly contributed too. Julia Whelan always manages to bring another dimension to the characters she reads. Don't get me wrong, this book is the misery Olympics. However, I do respect the author’s choice here, as the Great Depression and Dust Bowl period were exactly that; absolutely unrelenting and miserable. By the end, I found myself absolutely desperate for hope, just a scrap, for these poor characters. But Hannah does not yield. In fact, she punches you in the guts one last time and leaves you absolutely wrecked. Nice. Despite the unrelenting misery, this book still comes highly recommended by me. It’s an incredible story of motherhood, female power, grit and determination. Well worth shedding a tear or two over.

It's been a while since I've written a review
I've been through hundreds of books on Audible and I stopped writing reviews a long time ago. This book...reduced me to tears. I am not the crying type. This book pulls at the heart strings. The pain of a mother being strong for her children when she has no strength left. As soon as I heard the narrators voice I thought "absolutely not" but my hands were messy and I couldn't be bothered to clean up to switch to another book so I ended up just listening for a while. I kept needing to know what next. The narration grew on me and I was hooked on this book. If you liked this book try The Nightingale or Firefly lane next.
