    <body><![CDATA[What amazed me the most about Betty Smith in the stage when I was devouring all her books was that she weaved together such different plots in the same setting: amongst Irish immigrants in Great Depression era New York. The heroine of this book is older and much more outgoing than Francie in <em>A Tree Grows in Brooklyn</em>, but she's also literary, and this is the story of how she comes into her own in exploring her gifts.]]></body>
