An absorbing epic view of daily life in the 1930s through
the tragedy of 9/11 tracing the valiant Schecter family's
ongoing struggles. The story follows head of the family,
Norman, fiercely battling for the creation of a teachers'
union during the crucible of the Great Depression. His
beloved wife, Marsa, strives to keep their family fed and
clothed. Neatly woven throughout their lives is how their
love for each other and their children is threatened yet
keeps them together. Moving back and forth in time, we
read the heart-felt stories of a wide group of fascinating
people both in the United States and abroad. The book is a
mirror of the present recession, the moral and economic
dilemmas bombarding people today, and how through
perseverance and hope we can overcome the worst of
circumstances. A Penny for the Violin Man is both a
panoramic view of tumultuous times and a fascinating
journey.
