The visceral connection between Dvorah, rejected infant of grieving mother, and Mariasse, a young girl from Krakow, who nurses her in the lower decks of the ship carrying them to the new world. For four decades they wander in and out of each other's lives, their relationship weathering fierce devotion and bitter betrayal. Its image-driven prose manifests the vagaries of memory and the struggle for self-reinvention.
