The Unamericans: Stories by Molly Antopol
5.0
My favorite story in this book is called “My Grandmother Tells This story”. The first line is:
“Some say the story begins in Europe, and your mother would no doubt interrupt and say it begins in New York, but that’s just because she can’t imagine the world before she entered it.”
Doesn’t that grab your attention, pull you into this conversation you didn’t know you were having? Antopol has a skill for this kind of thing.
If you want to know if this book is for you, skip right to that story, or go ahead and read the award winning story here:
