Wonderful, absolutely charming book.... This book is written by the same author as A Tree Grows in Brooklyn and is just as good...
The story follows a very young couple and their first year of married life in the late 1920's.
He at university attempting to get a law degree and she as a very young wife learning the ways of the world..

If you've read Betty Smith you know that she's one of the best female authors of her time, hands down. This book set in 1927 in Brooklyn and then the mid-west gives great insight into life at the time and the hardships of young love and little money.

Betty Smith's works are all timeless. Although she is best known as the author of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, all four of her books are delightful and well-worth reading.
