Men verden er under forandring, og selvom Frankie er opvokset med konservative dyder, drømmer hun om et andet liv og om at gøre en forskel. I Vietnam raser krigen, og da Frankies bror bliver sendt af sted for at kæmpe, træffer hun et impulsivt valg: Hun melder sig som sygeplejerske i hæren for at følge i sin brors fodspor. Men krigens rædsler viser sig at være langt værre, end hun nogensinde havde forestillet sig.

Kvinderne er en gribende og uforglemmelig fortælling om en ung kvindes mod og idealisme i en tid præget af krig og samfundsomvæltninger.

Kvinnorna" är en djupt känslosam och rikt tecknad berättelse om en kvinna i krig, men också om alla kvinnor som utsätter sig för fara för att hjälpa andra och som sedan alltför ofta glöms bort.

A powerful and heartfelt story of mothers and daughters, by the multi-million copy bestselling author Kristin Hannah.

I ALASKA KAN MAN DØ PÅ HUNDREDE MÅDER, MEN DET ER IKKE ALTID NATUREN, DER ER DEN FARLIGSTE … Leni er tretten år, da hendes impulsive far beslutter, at familien skal flytte til Alaska. I vildmarken kan de endelig leve, som de selv vil, være frie og uafhængige. I første omgang lader Alaska til at være svaret på deres bønner. De lange solskinsdage og de lokales sammenhold og generøsitet opvejer familiens manglende forberedelse og svindende ressourcer. Leni begynder at tro på en bedre fremtid for sig selv og sin familie, og følelsen af at høre til vokser, da hun bliver venner med den betænksomme Matthew. Men efterhånden som vinteren nærmer sig, og mørket sænker sig over Alaska, bliver forældrenes i forvejen vanskelige forhold forværret. I deres lille hytte – dækket af sne og indhyllet i atten timers mørke – går den frygtelige sandhed op for Leni og hendes mor: De er alene, og der er ingen, som kan hjælpe dem. Himlen over vildmarken er en smuk og barsk fortælling om jagten på et bedre liv, kærlighed, overlevelse og den rå vildskab, der skjuler sig i både mennesket og naturen.

In this laugh-out-loud and heartfelt memoir, writer, speaker, and podcaster Molly Stillman shares her unforgettable story of losing her mother, squandering an unexpected quarter-of-a-million-dollar inheritance in less than two years, attempting to launch a career in comedy but ending up on a farm instead, and finding faith, hope, and joy in the middle of it all. Molly Stillman has lived the type of life that when shared, people stop in their tracks and ask, "Wait, what happened?" Molly's mother, Lynda Van Devanter Buckley served as an Army nurse during the Vietnam War and wrote the bestselling memoir, Home Before Morning. When Molly was seventeen, Lynda passed away after an eight-year battle with an autoimmune disorder due to her exposure to Agent Orange. Four years later, Molly turned twenty-one and unexpectedly inherited a quarter of a million dollars from her mother's estranged family's estate. Through "retail therapy" and a long series of grossly irresponsible financial decisions, Molly found herself broke with over $36,000 in credit card debt less than two years later. Shame, guilt, and embarrassment set in. With aspirations of a career in comedy, Molly used humor to mask the pain and brokenness she felt, believing that if she looked joyful and put together on the outside, it would eventually be true on the inside. Instead, she spent the next few years depressed, lonely, and feeling alienated from those closest to her. But an unlikely call with a compassionate credit counselor, meeting the spreadsheet-loving man who eventually became her husband, and a surprising visit to a church started her on a path that changed everything. If I Don't Laugh, I'll Cry will bring readers into the tension of feeling both joy and grief and show them that every broken, messed up story has a purpose, and it's possible to gain everything if they're willing to surrender it all to Jesus.
