But at least they have one another and the Saturday Evening Girls Club, a social pottery-making group offering respite from their hectic home lives―and hope for a better future.\nAmbitious Caprice dreams of opening her own hat shop, which clashes with the expectations of her Sicilian-born parents. Brilliant Ada secretly takes college classes despite the disapproval of her Russian Jewish father. Stunning Maria could marry anyone yet guards her heart to avoid the fate of her Italian Catholic mother, broken down by an alcoholic husband. And shy Thea is torn between asserting herself and embracing an antiquated Jewish tradition.\nThe friends face family clashes and romantic entanglements, career struggles and cultural prejudice. But through their unfailing bond, forged through their weekly gathering, they’ll draw strength―and the courage to transform their immigrant stories into the American lives of their dreams.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1503943275\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1503943275.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Healey, Jane\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
