The Boston Girl by Anita Diamant
The Boston Girl is told through the eyes of a Jewish woman growing up in Boston in the early twentieth century. It is a coming-of-age story about family ties and values, about immigration and generational change, about friendship and feminism. Addie Baum is The Boston Girl, born in 1900 to immigrant parents who were unprepared for the effect that America would have on three daughters.
Eighty-five-year-old Addie tells the story of her life to her twenty-two-year-old granddaughter, who has asked her “How did you get to be the woman you are today.” She begins in 1915, the year she found her voice and made friends who would help shape the course of her life.
