Tomorrow Will Be Better
by Betty Smith
**A timeless classic! *''Tomorrow Will Be Better''*** is a heartwarming story of love and marriage from ***Betty Smith***, the beloved author of ***''A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.''***
**Set in the Williamsburg and Bushwick sections of Brooklyn in the 1920s**, ***''Tomorrow Will Be Better''*** is the story of Margy Shannon—shy, eager, joyfully optimistic—and her search for something better from life than the hard misery of poverty in which she lives.
**All Margy's parents have ever known is an unrewarding life of poverty, pain, and hard work—a life that has ultimately worn them down.** But Margy, young and just out of school, still holds steadfast to an unshakable hopefulness and believes a better life is possible. ***Her goals are simple enough—to find a husband she loves, have children, and live in a nice home—one where her children will never know the terror of want, the need to hide from quarreling parents, and the dread of unjust punishment.*** And when she meets Frankie Malone, she thinks at last her dreams might be fulfilled.
Rich with the ***flavor of its Brooklyn background***, and the joys and heartbreak of family life, **''Tomorrow Will Be Better''** is told with a ***simplicity, tenderness, and humor that only Betty Smith could write***.
