  • av Nancy Zafris

    av Leigh Anne Duck

  • av Sonja Livingston
    397 - 581

    One of seven children brought up by a single mother, Sonja Livingston was raised in areas of western New York that remain relatively hidden from the rest of America. Eschewing sentimentality, this memoir offers a meditation on what it means to hunger and shows that poverty can strengthen the spirit just as surely as it can grind it down.
