With quick silver wit the story of a young girl crossing the threshold to womanhood unfolds as she learns the bitter trade-off between what is irretrievably lost and what is gained, as she and her family confront the grim reality of living the American dream. -Charles Ruas, Author of, \"Conversations with American Writers.\" Praise for To Die In Chicago As seen through the eyes of an innocent and idealistic 16-year-old immigrant girl from Yugoslavia, a tale of disillusionment, struggle, and resistance in the American heartland of the 1950's. Beautifully told, deeply felt. -Artist and Writer, Rebecca Clare This book surpasses Nadja Tesich's previous brilliant works, Shadow Partisan and Native Land--She is an interesting literary treasure. -Laura Shane Cunningham, author of Sleeping Arrangements Praise for Nadja Tesich and Native Land A vivid, engrossing work of memory and observation. The honesty of the girl's perceptions-particularly those around issues of politics and womanliness-make the writing all the more sympathetic. -Philip Lopate\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 204\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.47 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 17, 2010\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47183660318969,"sku":"9781450233897","price":19.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/SVFUaWVXTE5NaldzSkx0MUJqRjBtdz09.webp?v=1767776759","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/to-die-in-chicago-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
