Savannah, Georgia, in 1969 is a city as beautiful as it is broken. Just outside of town, the four Caldwell sisters live on Isle of Hope in a home that aches and echoes with their mother’s absence. Until their father suddenly sends them north to her alma mater, an all-girls boarding school in the Berkshires.

On campus, the Caldwells learn to navigate a new world, one where their accents sound funny and the social order feels opaque. But as they forge their own paths in the place where their mother once thrived, through love and friendship and loss, each sister is also carrying a secret that threatens to upend all their lives.

When a revelation from their mother’s student days unravels a hidden family story during alumni weekend, the sisters’ private dramas reach a breaking point. With the truth now told, the Caldwells will have to lean on each other like never before to reclaim their future—and embrace who their mother always knew they could be.

Told with wisdom and wit and so much heart, Mamabird is a timeless celebration of the biggest, most enduring kind of love.
