Salt: A World History | Mark Kurlansky
post image

Well, I thought I would read a few chapters while at my in-laws house. Little Man thought he would get educated about the history of salt while getting snuggles. Win-win! #DogsOfLitsy #LittleMan #ReadingHistory #SnuggleTime

GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT | LAURA Z. HOBSON
post image

On paper this book should be a hands down winner for me.
•Set in nyc
•Female author
•Jewish identity as subject matter
•film adaptation won best picture in ‘47
•great copy

The approach to the subject is dated but chugging through.
Were Jews really seen as so different only 90 years ago? Is this what my grandparents lived with?
