About this book

Ten stories of poor Jewish immigrants in New York make up this collection by Anzia Yezierska, who was herself an immigrant from Poland. The first, "Wings", begins in a dark basement where Shenah Pessah, a young janitress, longs for love when a lodger comes to see a room.

Among the other stories are Hunger, Soap and Water, The Fat of the Land and How I Found America. First published in 1920, the book is dedicated to Mrs. Henry Ollesheimer.
