Not Our Kind by Kitty Zeldis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow, what a book. This is wonderful writing, rich, complete characters that are interesting and often frightening. The setting and the plot are wonderful.
Today, again, people are not afraid to be racist or anti-Semitic. This book hearkens back to those days when many clubs and venues were restricted. No Jews or Negros allowed. I never lived this but my parents did. My grandparents escaped the pogroms of Russia only to find plenty of racism here.
In my youth I thought these things had ended but I might have been wrong...
