Hilda and Pearl: A Novel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If your relationship with your best friend has survived rocky times, read this book; your experience of the love and friendship between women will be affirmed. If you want to remember the innoncence you had as a girl, read this book; Frances will let you visit with her childhood. This story is honestly told by the the unique voices of young Frances, who in her niavete fills in the holes of her family's story with her own childish fantasy, of her Aunt Pearl, who misplaces the intense love inside her, and of Hilda, Frances's mother, who teaches us that when love is stong enough, there is nothing that can't be forgiven. This is the story of a Jewish family, set in a New York City stuggling through the depression, grappling with Europe's facism, and touched by McCarthy's witch hunt for communists. Read this book; it is beautiful.
