My Mother's Daughter - Nancy McKeever

In sharp, keenly observed stories, Nancy McKeever paints a tender portrait of her family from 1940s Pittsburgh to present-day Los Angeles, a family who refuses to be beaten down by the daily indignities of poverty, who are each other's hero when it counts, and who, despite each individual's unique struggles, are bound together by loyalty, generosity, humor, and a deep love. I read these stories with tears in my eyes and renewed hope in my heart for how goodness and perseverance can overcome the deepest scars
