This beautifully written book follows the life of a young girl in "The Old Country" (an unnamed area of Eastern Europe) who eventually emigrates to America and has children, grandchildren and a great grandchild of her own. When told from the main character's perspective, it reads like a fairy tale for grownups, with subplots evocative of Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretel and Rapunzel. I couldn't put it down!
