Synopsis

This is a love story of great beauty and great tenderness, the kind of love story that entangles the listener in the lives of the characters, so that after the story is over, one continues to live with those characters. And fortunately, the listener will not have to say farewell to these characters. The Immigrants is complete in itself, an absorbing novel of high adventure, romance, joy and tragedy. But it is also the first in a series that will tell the story of three Californian families over the course of the twentieth century.

Goodreads review by Tea on December 12, 2017

Ovo je sjajna porodična saga... Davno je objavljena u Hrvatskoj kao "Doseljenici" i "Druga generacija", a zapravo postoje još 4 dela koji nikada nisu prevedeni...

3,5/5 De sagas yo más bien poco. Pero una memorable para mí es La Trilogía del Siglo de K. Follet, siendo La Caída de los Gigantes, la primera entrega, la que me arrebató la voluntad de hacer otra cosa distinta de leer. Me acerqué a esta saga de Howard Fast con la idea de ver el lado Norte Americano......more

For the most part, this book was an enjoyable read. The plot moves along at a snappy pace, and the characters are likable enough. But I didn't care for the ending, and I wished that the whole book had been a bit more focused. Dan Lavette is the protagonist, and yet Fast includes a large cast of supp......more
