Day 26: Little Women
It wasn't just my father, but the generations who made my father whose weight was still upon me.

And then I told him of the hard heart. How I had to cut out everything soft in my life only to survive.
Not often I read a book with a character I don't like. The father in this book has gotten on my last nerve. #immigrantfiction #nyc
Ms. @JacintaMCarter tagged me for the #bookcolortag and gave me green. I stacked up a few of my green books in my office while I was there getting my laptop. I should probably stick around and do some work since I'm spending next week in Vegas, but I think I'll avoid that until after vacation!
The Jewish immigrant experience in New York: Four daughters who work to support the family like in olden days. Sara, the youngest, becomes fiercely independent, promising herself to fight the Torah: woman is nothing without man.

Set in 1920s New York, the protagonist, and others in the Lower East Side, face the issues that go along with being an immigrant to this country, but also face issues related to struggling as women to be independent despite their fathers' orthodox Russian Jewish ideas that a woman only exists through a man. "Nobody can stop me, I'm not from the old country. I'm American!"
#PhotoADayNov16 - #readinschool - I really want to reread this book that I read in middle school, since I really liked it. (I went to a Jewish school, so we read quite a bit of #JewLit in addition to stuff like To Kill a Mockingbird and Huckleberry Finn.)
