4/5⭐️
A beautiful collection of short stories set in early 20th century New York, told through the eyes of Jewish immigrants as they struggle to find their place in America. These stories were beautiful and sad all at the same time. It made me really think about how my ancestors had suffered so much in order to make sure that their children would be free from religious persecution. These stories truly show the hunger that so many immigrants felt, whether for a loaf of bread or for the American Dream.
