Linda's review
Accordion Crimes by E. Annie Proulx
This book moved ever so slowly but I was sorry when it ended. It had become my companion. It is more like a series of short stories threaded together by a green accordian. The author has a way with words and it's obvious she did a lot of research for the book. It is rich with tales of various ethnic groups that make up the USA. It chronicles the sad stories of poverty, racism, discrimination, and hard luck but balances it with hope, hard work, determination, and color.
