Songs of Spring
商品資訊
商品簡介
Can two sisters achieve their dreams despite social norms and local and worldwide events that impact their lives in the early decades of the 1900s?
After ten years as an only child, Pearl Mooney's mother is in labor. Pearl's resentment turns to fear when the midwife shouts, "We're losing her."
"Who?" Pearl wonders but doesn't dare ask. Her mother? Or the baby? Either would be devastating.
Living in a small town in Washington, fourteen-year-old Pearl must leave her parents and four-year-old sister, Edna, to live with her aunt and uncle to attend high school across the sound in Seattle. For the next two decades, the sisters' lives are shaped by their ten-year age difference, separation, and the historical events of the time, including the Alaska Yukon Pacific Exposition, Halley's comet, the sinking of the Titanic, women's suffrage, World War I, and the Spanish Flu pandemic. Despite the restrictions, especially for women, in the early 1900s, Pearl has high expectations for her future, but the sisters discover they must fight the constraints of society, the limitations of the era, and live with their choices in their pursuit to fulfill their goals and find happiness.
Songs of Spring is a historical coming-of-age story. Pearl and Edna's experiences will inspire and educate readers as the sisters come into their own during the events of the early twentieth century.
