As her sisters grew up under the strict guidance of their rabbi father, they were molded into loveless marriages and destined for unfulfilling futures. They were expected to fulfill their roles as breadwinners, working tirelessly to provide for their family while their father immersed himself in the study of the Torah. According to this belief, a woman without her father or husband was considered less than nothing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHowever, Sara's hunger for more drove her to defy her father's expectations. In a moment of defiance, she escaped from her home, embarking on a journey to explore the American dream and discover what it held for her. Through this poignant coming-of-age tale and striking portrait of feminist rebellion, Sara emerges as a strong and independent woman who refuses to be confined by the narrow confines of her cultural heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 196g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 130 x 196 x 17 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780143137719\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anzia Yezierska","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44964046012666,"sku":"9780143137719","price":7.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1704474105702_book.jpg?v=1704526510","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/bread-givers-9780143137719","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
