Pages : 388
Book Description
Toward the end of the depression, the Ludaks struggle with jobs, ethnic hostility, and widespread class prejudice in their upstate New York factory hometown in Thompsonville. But life for their daughter Joanna proves wide and adventurous and jubilant, if something terrifying. Her coming of age as a Polish Catholic, blue-collar, scrubbed but culturally hobbled youngster is a riveting fictional odyssey of painful confrontations with both natal and dominant community values, of growing friendships with an array of varied minority persons, of first love across class barriers. Into this turbulent mix, Americans entrance into World War II brings further lifestyle changes and disruptive values into Thompsonville. The family nexus cannot hold. Uncle Sam and Aunt Albina reach for the prize of the American brass ring. While Joannas mother, Bertha, resonates with their success and strives to emulate their example, Dad Ludak meanders into no mans land to bitter unresolved conflicts. Joanna alone promises to approach self-actualization, which has always been her goal.
