Overview

"A twelve-year-old Polish immigrant arrives in Brooklyn in 1953, facing a set of hardships that are disctinctly quieter than those her family faced in Nazi-occupied Warsaw. From childhood to marriage to old age, Mary attempts to rectify the trauma of her wartime childhood, particularly the events surrounding the Warsaw Rising, with her experience as an American woman—including sexual violence, as well as innumerable smaller acts of aggression—in the latter half of the twentieth and the early twenty-first centuries." -- Abstract
