520    From beloved bestselling author Ursula Hegi, a new novel 
       about three mothers, set on the shores of the Nordsee, 
       perfect for fans of  Water for Elephants  and  The Light 
       Between Oceans .   In the summer of 1878, the Ludwig 
       Zirkus has come to the island Nordstrand in Germany. Big-
       bellied girls rush from St. Margaret's Home for Pregnant 
       Girls, thrilled to see the parade and the show, followed 
       by the Sisters who care for them. The Old Women and Men, 
       competing to be crowned as the island's Oldest Person, 
       watch, thinking they have seen it all. But after the show,
       a Hundred-Year Wave roars from the Nordsee and claims 
       three young children. Three mothers are on the beach when 
       it happens: Lotte, whose children are lost; Sabine, a 
       Zirkus seamstress with her grown daughter; and Tilli, 
       still just a child herself, who will give birth later that
       day at St. Margaret's. And all three will end up helping 
       each other more than they ever could have anticipated.  As
       full of joy and beauty as it is of pain, and told with the
       luminous power that has made Ursula Hegi a beloved 
       bestselling author for decades,  The Patron Saint of 
       Pregnant Girls  is a shattering portrait of marriage and 
       motherhood, and of the ways in which women hold each other
       up in the face of heartbreak.
