Anzia Yezierska (1882-1970) was born in Poland and came to the Lower East Side of New York with her family in 1890 when she was nine years old. By the 1920s she had risen out of poverty and become a successful writer of stories, novels--all autobiographical--and an autobiography, Red Ribbon on a White Horse (Persea). Her novel Bread Givers (Persea) is considered a classic of Jewish American fiction. Her acclaimed books also include How I Found America: Collected Stories and The Open Cage. She died in 1970.
The classic novel of Jewish immigrants, with period photographs. This masterwork of American immigrant literature is set in the 1920s on the Lower East Side of Manhattan and tells the story of Sara Smolinsky, the youngest daughter of an Orthodox rabbi, who rebels against her father's rigid conception of Jewish womanhood. Sarah's struggle towards independence and self-fulfillment resonates with a passion all can share. Beautifully redesigned page for page with the previous editions, Bread Givers is an essential historical work with enduring relevance. 16 black-and-white photographs

前言是哥倫比亞研究婦女勞動史的教授寫的。讀書會的朋友在讀完之後寫瞭封email給她,她還馬上迴復瞭。
評分語言簡單樸質,感情真摯,不過總覺得對於Sara如何在艱苦環境下學習、如何適應大學生活這部分話語時間太少,一下就跳過瞭。
評分一開始看的時候還是很痛苦,一旦投入進去之後反而被它語言的質樸給吸引瞭,literature課上聯係瞭Jewish America來讀,覺得Father這個角色簡直amazing……居然沒有中譯本,可惜。

評分結構超簡單。葉姐當初是打算把它隨手編劇本的麼……和Pride and Prejudice對著看,這個猶太移民版之各種奇葩的嫁人不成,有那麼點黑色幽默的意思。以及對照猶太極端男權主義和伊斯蘭極端男權主義,何其相似乃爾。
