(3) 1-3 A series of brief anecdotes told in the highly original and captivating voice of the author's grandmother describes in merry and precise detail the experience of leaving eastern Europe at the turn of the century and making a new home on New York's Lower East Side. Colorful, expressive paintings, infused with both the New World's energy and the folkloric warmth of the old, provide a perfect visual complement.
