The Furies (New York Review Books Classics)  .
Janet Hobhouse. NYRB Classics. 2004. Book review by Joel I found this book recommendation from The Lost Books Club that I found from a documentary called "Stone Reader (Special Edition) 
", which is a very interesting documentary about someone's search for an
author of the book, The
Stones Of Summer ,
which led to the Web site and then this book. This is an autobiographical
novel of how four generations of women affect each other in Janet's life
as she grows up. Her portrait of her own mother is honest and heartbreaking.
They share a small apartment in New York City and never have enough money
to get by. But they do. This book goes deep into what it's like growing
up not having the "right" clothes for school or the perfect home to live
in as the rich kids. This is a great book and I recommend it highly. You can go to The Lost Books Web site. The book is available at Amazon. Joel. Visit Book Reader's Traverse Home Page for more selections.
