When Rosa is tricked out of her steamship ticket in England, Esther travels on to New York without family, papers or money. While Rosa lands on her feet in London's Soho, Esther is totally isolated in an unknown, unforgiving world. . . . .Slowly and painfully, the sisters make their separate ways in America and England, their relationship maintained by an intimate yet uneasy correspondence.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. A tight and unmarked copy-" I really enjoyed this book. It's quite short, flows pretty well and it really makes you think. The story follows two Jewish sisters, Rosa and Esther, throughout the course of most of their lives. Incredibly close during their difficult childhood in Russia, fate then tears them apart when they leave home to start a new life."-Lou " This held my attention and I had to keep reading! Esther and Rosa are sisters, born in Russia in the early 1900's when the Jews were repressed. Life was hard for the sisters, daughters of Russian Jews. Esther loved her older sister, Rosa and would follow her anywhere, but the time came for Rosa to marry. Her parents found a learned match in Shameul and the two, hardly having seen one another are married. Rosa tries to make the best of her loveless marriage and when the opportunity comes for them to escape to the New World, Rosa encourages her husband to go."-Kathy-moderate edge wear and.
