BOOK REVIEW
"In today's fast-paced world, many of us long for the good ol' days and the so-called “simpler” times where we all lived closer to the land. Any time you're feeling like that, pick up Black Raspberries. Jeanine Malarsky's memoir about growing up as one of many children in a family scrabbling out a living on dying dairy farms in upstate New York is one of the true st books I've ever read. She spares us no details about the hardships of being a poor farmer's daughter and what it takes to move forward from a life where poverty seems to always get the upper hand. This is a great story of resilience and determination, well told by a writer who doesn't sugarcoat a thing."
