Special thanks to listener Emma for recommending A Tree Grows In Brooklyn, which proved to be a great companion to last week\'s The House on Mango Street. This coming of age narrative takes its time, allowing for tangents as it tells its tale of class struggle at the turn of the 20th century.\\xa0
Up for discussion: female friendships, put upon mothers, widowers in the wings, the surprisingly feminist read (for the time).\\xa0
Plus: the film\'s condensed timeline and why we love Aunt Sissy, even if she caused a real life scandal!
