Rachel Farber’s poignant, funny, brutally frank memoir of life as immigrant, from her tiny village in rural Poland/Russia to busy 1920s New York City, to marriage, heartache, and finding peace amid chaos, speaks for a generation that made this amazing journey. It is an American classic on a human scale. I laughed so hard I forgot to cry. This story is about living hard times and finding humor in dire places - the things that keep us sane. –Kenneth D. Ackerman, author of BOSS TWEED: The Corrupt Pol who Conceived the Soul of Modern New York Sharp, spicy, pungent, and finally moving…. Rachel Farber vividly evokes a unique life story as well as the broader experience of Jews who braved their way from Eastern European shtetls to the teeming tenements of old New York City. A delicious treat. –James G. Hershberg, author of MARIGOLD: the Lost Chance for Peace in VietNam
