"Hungry Hearts" by Anzia Yezierska is a collection of short stories published in 1920. Through the eyes of fictional Jewish women, these stories explore the immigrant experience in New York City at the turn of the 20th century. Each tale captures a different struggle—loneliness, poverty, shattered dreams, and the harsh gap between hope and reality. From factory workers to mothers, these characters face grinding hardship while searching for love, dignity, and belonging in their new American home. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
