Stories of a Jewish life from a Galitzianer shtetl to a Florida condiminium, told by an award-winning storyteller. "Her writing has a lively, spoken word rhythm, as if she is the raconteur in your living room telling tales out of school. This is the oral tradition in its truest sense: stories shaped by the listener and by time. Bresnick-Perry's stories are wildly funny and deeply moving." -Na'amat Woman "Through these many-splendored multi-layered technicolor personal stories, filled with humor and poignant moments, Roslyn's voice enters your heart! She carries you with her to deeper truths of the human spirit." - Peninnah Schram "One of this nation's finest tellers of tales." - Steve Zeitlin, author, Because God Loves Stories: An Anthology of Jewish Storytelling

Book Description:
"Like all the best stories, hers are universal. You certainly don't have to be Jewish to love Roslyn's storytelling."
From the Publisher:
Roslyn Bresnick-Perry has a gift. She is irresistible. Her stories and her manner are so engaging that you come under her spell. Her memory is strong and clear, and her unique perspective is funny and disarming. Meeting her, you cannot imagine what would have happened if such a spitfire had stayed in the shtetl. We'll never know, as she moved to the United States at the age of seven. Her father, who was trying to support his family, inadvertently saved them from the European nightmare to come. So Roslyn's stories of the shtetl contain no foreshadowing of the Holocaust. Her stories are simply the reminiscences of a funny little girl who loved her family and her life as much as she loved trouble.
Reading Roslyn's book, it is as if you can hear her speak.
