Individually, each of these 27 stories is authentic and immediate, as memorable as family history passed from one generation to the next; taken together, they comprise a vivid, enduring portrait of the struggles of immigrant Jews--particularly women--on New York's Lower East Side.
This book was one of the many fine works of literature we needed for 11th grade at my school. While reading it I was engrossed and couldn't put it down. A really, really good book.
