Description:
The Marchewka women are inseparable. The foundation of a dignified, compassionate family, the women have learned to survive the hardships of emigration and assimilation in twentieth century America. But as the century evolves, so does each succeeding generation. The youngest, Amy, is separated by four generations from her great-grandmother Rose, who emigrated from Poland. Rose's daughter Helen adjusted to the family's new home in a way her mother never could, while at the same time accepting the importance of Old Country ways. But Helen's daughter, Ginger, finds herself suffocating within the close-knit family, the first Marchewka woman to leave Detroit. It's in the American West that Ginger raises her daughter Amy, a world away from the safety of kitchens perfumed by the aroma of freshly baked poppy seed cake and pierogis made by hand by generations of women. But Amy is about to realize that there may be room in her heart for both the Old World and the New.
