In A Wider World: Portraits in an Adolescence , Simon continues the autobiography she began in Bronx Primitive. Kate was a maverick; the daughter of Jewish immigrants in the Bronx in the 1930s, she rebelled against her overbearing father while still a young adolescent and virtually raised herself. She worked as a mother s helper for artistic Village families, summered at communistic summer colonies, explored Harlem, camped out with a boyfriend when she was 16. Through the wealth of experiences, Simon struggled to learn about herself trying on this and that image in vain adolescent posturing. An honest, dramatic picture of what it was like to be a certain adolescent at a certain place and time. Recommended. Janet Boyarin Blundell, MLS, Brookdale Community Coll., Lincroft, N.J.
