'Hope is a coin I carry, given to me by a woman I will always | Mafia Library
"Hope is a coin I carry, given to me by a woman I will always love, and I hold it now as I journey west, part of a new generation of seekers."
This quote which comes at the very end of the book actually sums up the moral quite well!
The book was filled with ups and downs so much it made me keep turning pages whole day and night!
No gonna lie, the start of the book had me angry, and angry not towards the book, but towards how people were treating the protagonist of the book.
I saw a free bird being caged and then after she leapt free I saw her getting institutionalized into a house wife....
Then the book shows you the other side, "the great depression"
You are sitting in awe as you see a mother doing everything she can to feed their children and all the while working, not excepting free food so others can have it!
She believes in the american dream, she works hard and the mother and daughter conflict has you hooked.
You see the struggle of the common man after everything is taken from them.......
And then comes the revolutionary ideas and the commentary on capitalism which I wouldn't get into due to spoilers.
If you decide to read this book, be prepared to go through the sorrows, the struggles and amongst it all, the love the families face during these hard times!
But at the end of the book you learn HOPE....
"And hope, Hope is a coin I carry, given to me by a woman I will always love, and I hold it now as I journey west, part of a new generation of seekers."
