SUMMARY:Rae Meadows: I Will Send Rain
DESCRIPTION:Annie Bell can’t escape the dust. It’s in her hair\, covering the windowsills\, coating the animals in the barn\, in the corners of her children’s dry\, cracked lips. It’s 1934 and the Bell farm in Mulehead\, Oklahoma is struggling as the earliest storms of The Dust Bowl descend. All around them the wheat harvests are drying out and people are packing up their belongings as storms lay waste to the Great Plains. As the Bells wait for the rains to come\, Annie and each member of her family are pulled in different directions. Annie’s fragile young son\, Fred\, suffers from dust pneumonia; her headstrong daughter\, Birdie\, flush with first love\, is choosing a dangerous path out of Mulehead; and Samuel\, her husband\, is plagued by disturbing dreams of rain. \nAs Annie\, desperate for an escape of her own\, flirts with the affections of an unlikely admirer\, she must choose who she is going to become. With her warm storytelling and beautiful prose\, Rae Meadows brings to life an unforgettable family that faces hardship with rare grit and determination. Rich in detail and epic in scope\, I Will Send Rain is a powerful novel of upheaval and resilience\, filled with hope\, morality\, and love. \nRae Meadows is the author of Calling Out\, which received the 2006 Utah Book Award for fiction\, and No One Tells Everything\, a Poets & Writers Notable Novel. She lives with her husband and two daughters in Minneapolis\, Minnesota.
