Some Good Stories

Mostly set in New York City, stories of Jewish girls and families written in early 1900's to 1920"s show that even back in the good old days, people still had problems that they have today: disease, drugs, unfaithful men (and women), and gullible women (and men). Hurst's characters and settings are beautifully described and easily envisioned. The best stories in my opinion are T.B., Summer Resources, and The Gold in Fish.
