(4) 4-6 This sequel to Double Crossing, set in the Lower East Side in the early twentieth century, is told through alternating perspectives of Raizel and her brother, Lemmel. While Raizel is determined to be a teacher, Lemmel turns to a life of petty crime. Although the family's trials and tribulations are familiar territory, Tal captures the flavor of the immigrant experience. Reading list. Glos.
