Rose is a survivor. Her remarkable life began in a tiny Russian village, took her to Warsaw’s ghettos, and a ship called “The Exodus” and finally to the boardwalks of Atlantic City and to Miami Beach. Rose is a poetic and brilliant portrait of courage tinged with aching, ironic humor as told by an 80-year-old Jewish woman. She is a fascinating heroine who copes with personal loss and learns to rediscover the joys of life.
