(4) YA A pair of shoes touches many lives, beginning with Holocaust survivor Dalya and ending with Ray and Pinny, two near-present-day runaways. The narrative alternates among characters who encounter the shoes until their stories come together. Widely varied motivations lend interest to the stories, but the novel's obsessive focus on shoes and their apparent significance can be overdramatic.
