Produktinformationen "Tomorrow Will Bring Sunday's News"
Tomorrow Will Bring Sunday's News yields 1918 Philadelphia, a city of war and racism, women's rights and women's work, the ferocious paralysis of a bloody race riot, and a flu that will prove to be more deadly than the war. It introduces sixteen-year-old Peggy Finley, a character inspired by Kephart's own mysterious grandmother. Smart, Peggy has ambitions. In love, she has a future. But when the draft sweeps through the city and ensnares the boy she loves, when her best friend, a German American, is attacked for the crime of being herself, when there is simply not enough to go around, Peggy takes on employment as a doffer at the brand-new Fleisher yarn factory, entering a community of other spirited young women determined to make a difference in a world beyond their control. Ultimately, Tomorrow asks this question: How do the stories we imagine become the truths we won't forget? It offers history as commentary on the world we live in now.
