Sisterhood is the key: a story of poverty, young parenthood, mental illness, and getting ahead in life. 
The Nash Sisters: A Story of Family Sticking Together When It Counts introduces four sisters whose roots are in rural North Carolina. They are girls during the 1920s—sometimes called the decade of optimism. They begin to mature in the 1930s—the decade of depression. And they try to live out their life plan in the 1940s—the decade of war.\nThese women deal with their challenges of poverty, young parenthood, intolerance, attempting to live within church rules, and facing mental health issues. When they are together, the Nash sisters use humor, fabricated songs, shared tears and hugs, and mostly conversations to cope when events that make life difficult, confusing, or sad. When they are not together, they use "Nash Round-Robin Letters" to stay in touch and share their lives and experiences with each other in their very different lives.\nDeath, illness, tragedy, and new adventures allow Dianne, Ethel, Annie, and Caroline Nash to discover their capacity to thrive by sticking together when it counts.\nIf you like Cold Sassy Tree, Fried Green Tomatoes, or anything Lee Smith, you will enjoy The Nash Sisters.
