Yonnondio telis the story of the Holbrooks, an itinerant working-class family in middle America during the thirties: Anna the mother, exhausted by the imperatives of motherhood, Jim the miner father, turning to drink in despair, their tumbling, hopeful children, gradually becoming aware of the harsh world into which they are born.

Yonnondio:
FromTheThirties
'She felt so worn, so helpless; it loomed gigantic, beyond her, impossible ever to achieve, beyond, beyond any effort or doing of hers: that task of making a better life for her children to which her being was bound.'
Yonnondio telis the story of the Holbrooks, an itinerant working-class family in middle America during the thirties: Anna the mother, exhausted by the imperatives of motherhood, Jim the miner father, turning to drink in despair, their tumbling, hopeful children, gradually becoming aware of the harsh world into which they are born. This account of their struggle to find a space to breathe, to dream and to create a better life for their children is a classic növel of American working-class life, the more moving because it is both an indictment of brutalising poverty yet a celebration ofhumanity inits struggles, its desperation, its unending efForts to survive and to hope. Tillie Olsen began this, her only növel, during the Depression and it is deeply rooted in the emotions of that decade. It was finally completed and published forty years later, in 1974: the result is a növel of timeless beauty.
'Lives with great depth and vibrancy a remarkable book her portrayal of faltering, caring motherhood and fatherhood, against the most overwhelming of odds is tremendously moving' -
