5.0
This book captures a unique Jewish-American immigrant story. The tension between fitting into suburban life and acknowledging the imperfections of the American dream during the 1960s is incredible. Following not just one main character, you learn and feel deeply for all sides caught in this cultural rift.
Moderate: Rape
Minor: Violence and Trafficking
