Bread Givers by Anzia Yezierska

emotional reflective medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

It's a hard book to read 100 years out, both emotionally and spiritually. Immigration and integration are both still long uphill roads and sometimes your own community and family hurt you just as deeply as society at large.
