Description

Born in Brooklyn during the Great Depression, Helen Mary grows up being told what she can't do, but defies her ancestral Irish-Catholic guilt to become herself. Through her eyes we see the impact of WWII on working-class families, the determination to get an education, the joys and sorrows of marrying a man in a dangerous job and raising children in an ever-changing world.
