This debut novel, a pseudonymous collaboration by a team of Italian-American cousins, mixes unpleasant stereotypes with powerfully authentic domestic scenes of Italian immigrants and their descendants. Progressing from the 1930s through the early '50s, the story follows two daughters from a desperately poor family. Neither sister will acquiesce to the traditional but stultifying demands for obedience and submission as issued by their father, who hopes to protect them from the corrupting influences of the New World. Instead, each seeks to realize her own version of the American Dream, nearly losing her way among upper-class Italian immigrants whose money offers entree to American society. But the pair triumphs, one sibling becoming an opera singer and the other a financial wizard. Mafia subplots, however, are incongruous in what is for the most part a moving saga of family love.... v angličtine, brožovaná, malý formát, 485 strán

The Fancy

Spisovatel: Dickens Monica, Michael Joseph 1955
Katalogové číslo: H4460

It's World War II, and women and girls have to do mens' jobs - making armaments. The book chronicles the lives of the girls who sit round a table making sure components are perfect to a fraction of an inch. I feel this is a job Dickens actually did, she knows so much about it. She also understands the need for a job, and the satisfaction of work well done, something her privileged background deprived her of until she worked as a servant and then a nurse (see One Pair of Hands and One Pair of Feet)... v angličtine, menší formát, brožovaná, 255 strán
