Rachel Farber's poignant, funny, brutally frank memoir of life as immigrant, from her tiny village in rural Poland/Russia to busy 1920s New York City, to marriage, heartache, and finding peace amid chaos, speaks for a generation that made this amazing journey. It is an American classic on a human scale."I laughed so hard I forgot to cry. This story is about living hard times and finding humor in dire places - the things that keep us sane." --Kenneth D. Ackerman, author of BOSS TWEED: The Corrupt Pol who Conceived the Soul of Modern New York"Sharp, spicy, pungent, and finally moving.... Rachel Farber vividly evokes a unique life story as well as the broader experience of Jews who braved their way from Eastern European shtetls to the teeming tenements of old New York City. A delicious treat." --James G. Hershberg, author of MARIGOLD: the Lost Chance for Peace in VietNam
