Hester Street 1975

Goodbye O Lord, I’m Going To America! A Russian émigré prides himself on having become a genuine Yankee, even though his surroundings—New York’s Lower East Side in the late‑19th century—are almost entirely populated by fellow Jewish immigrants. When his wife finally arrives in the New World, she must learn to assimilate to this bustling, immigrant‑rich environment.
