Allegra Maud Goldman by Edith Konecky
The book is a coming-of-age story that follows the life of a young Jewish girl growing up in 1940s America. Through a series of vignettes, readers witness the protagonist's journey from childhood to adolescence as she grapples with her identity, family dynamics, and the expectations placed upon her by society. With humor and poignancy, the narrative explores themes of self-discovery, cultural heritage, and the universal challenges of growing up, all while painting a vivid portrait of mid-20th century New York from the perspective of a spirited and introspective young girl.
