I really enjoyed reading this book. The story was set in Manhattan on the lower east side, where my father grew up, It is about a Jewish family , their hardships and their abundance of love. It's a really good read and brings you back to a simpler time.

Thanks for recommending this book.  It sounds like something both my mother and I would enjoy reading, so I just ordered it from you!
