The Sweetest Dream: Love, Lies, & Assassination

By Lillian Pollak

"Marvelous for its history and insight . a thoughtful, delightful window on the 30's. Whether in old New York City, rallies in Union Square, cafeterias or in Spain and Mexico . Miriam struggles to reconcile her life and politics." -Lynne Stewart, Lawyer, Civil Rights Activist, Teacher "Lillian Pollak is a wonderful story-teller . the best way to learn a history of dance in New York City . The device of Trotsky's life paralleling our heroines' is a beautiful trick. Read the book. They don't have lives like these anymore!" -Malachy McCourt, author "A Monk Swimming," actor "The book is well written; the two girls come to life . as does Miriam's mother ." -Annette Rubinstein, Shakespearian scholar, teacher, activist
