In precise, clear prose it tells the story of two girls and their entertwined lives in a small, poor town, post ww2 1960s. The four books spans over their lifetime as friends. It traces the fragility and traditional lives of girls becoming women in a patriarchal world, education, familial duties and marriage. I finished the series in like a month I could NOT PUT IT DOWNNNN!!! 🧍🏻♀️
