Description

Taking up where her celebrated Rivington Street left off, Meredith Tax's Union Square brims over with the passions and struggles of five indomitable women. Gutsy and engrossing, this work paints a complex, believable picture of the tumultuous years between the end of the First World War and the eve of the Second.
