Star Trek: The Original Series: Vulcan's Soul #3: Epiphany (Star Trek Vulcan's Soul) (v. 3)
""Golden Country" is a brilliant re-creation of mid-twentieth-century New York City and the way it shaped and was shaped by Jews who came to seek their fortunes in a land that turned out to be paved not with gold, but with comedy and tragedy, unexpected success and not always undeserved failure. Like E. L. Doctorow's "Ragtime," "Golden Country" manages to catch the spirit of history through the lives of individuals. Jennifer Gilmore's characters are wonderfully human, and it is exciting to watch their lives change as they move from the slums into the interconnected worlds of school, business, crime, and the theater." -- Alison Lurie, author of "Foreign Affairs" and "Truth and Consequences"
