An enjoyable historical novel, mainly about Jews in pre-war Poland. Its strength was the evocation of an enticing, vanished world of the main protagonist--its weakness, a failure to fully realize Jewish life in the United States and the motivations of the characters of the protagonist's daughter and granddaughter. I also expected a lot from this writer, the author of The Mind-Body Problem, so I might be judging a good, solid, enjoyable novel for not being a perfect, excellent novel!
