Four winds. Hannah K.

The epic novel about love, heroism and hope, whose action unfolds against the background of one of the most decisive eras in the history of America - great depression. Texas, 1934. Millions of people were left without work, the great plains are struck by many years of drought. Farmers are fighting to preserve the remains of the crop, the water is almost exhausted, the dust threatens to absorb them all. Regular dust storms turned the fertile edge into the desert until recently. At this terrible time, the Martinelli family, like their farmers, should make a painful choice: to stay on the earth they love, or go to the west, to California, in search of the best share. Elsa, a courageous woman, to whom life from a young age did not show much favor, is worried, first of all, for two of her children, who have already forgotten what rain is, what it is - to eat and what decent clothes look like. They have not been living for a long time, but survive, and the time has come when Elsa has no choice: if she wants to save children, she must decide and leave their home, go to the unknown, hoping that they will gain prosperity.

“Four Winds” is an indelible portrait of America and the American dream, seen by the eyes of an indomitable woman, whose courage and sacrifice will become decisive for the whole generation.
