This review is from: Marv (Hardcover)
Marv is the sixth book in Marilyn Sachs' interlinked stories about growing up in the late 1930s. Four of the books primarily feature girls; in the last two boys have a significant presence. No magic, no crime-solving, just kids with ordinary lives and ordinary problems. Sachs has said she wrote this book for her husband, Maurice. At Marv's house his father is busy with work and union activity, his mother is a housewife worrying about her intellectual daughter and her dreamy and unfocused son, the older sister wants things at home nice while being a social activist, and Marv is fascinated by the mechanical and the creative - everyone is real.
