In 'How I Came Into My Inheritance,' Dorothy Gallagher tells the story of her family with an intimate and compelling voice, reminiscent of authors like Gornick. With talent and insight, Gallagher recounts her Slavic and Jewish heritage in a fascinating way, almost as if it were fiction. From the last stage of her parents' lives, the author goes back to the origins of her family in Ukraine, her childhood in New York in the forties, and the family adventures in the Jewish communities of Harlem and the Bronx, sharing a communist ideology. These episodes record the acts of a daughter on her path to independence, addressing universal themes such as the fragility of friendship, the power of love, and the role of fate in life.
