A review by mizdoubleu
Quiet Americans by Erika Dreifus

4.0

Skilled storytelling with lots of heart. Erika Dreifus' characters face some of the most difficult challenges this world could throw at people. And in these well-drawn snapshots of the characters' lives, their responses draw each reader into the story to feel the reverberations in his or her own life. Containing aching loss and joy, these stories are both particular to Jewish history and contemporary culture, as well as universal.
