In My Mother's House depicts a profound, intergenerational struggle
between a powerful, politically engaged mother, Rose, and her
spiritually inclined poet and writer daughter, Kim. Framing this
collision are two other generations. There is Rose's mother from
the shtetl, a broken woman regularly beaten by her husband but the
source of the family's stories. And Kim's daughter, a
second-generation, fully assimilated girl of eight at the time the
book begins. Four generations, from the shtetl to an affluent
intellectual household in Berkeley, California, the story is a
historical record and reckoning between the old activist left and a
beginning feminist movement. The double narrative allows Kim to
explore the evolving relationship between mother and daughter, who,
through their storytelling, are brought to a profound understanding
and reconciliation.
