An LATimes Book Prize and National Jewish Book Award finalist, Golden Country brings to life the intertwining stories of three immigrants seeking their fortunes. Starring in this "ingeniously plotted family yarn" (NYTBR) are Seymour, a salesman turned gangster turned Broadway producer; Joseph, a door-to-door salesman who is driven to invent a cleanser effective enough to wipe away the shame of his brother's mob connections; and Frances, who grows up in Brooklyn, stars in Seymour's first show, and marries the man who invents television.
