“the kitchen held our lives together. my mother worked in it all day long, we ate in it almost all meals except the passover seder, i did my homework and first writing at the kitchen table, and in winter i often had a bed made up for me on three kitchen chairs near the stove. on the wall just over the table hung a long horizontal mirror that sloped to a ship's prow at each end and was lined in cherry wood. it took up the whole wall, and drew every object in the kitchen to itself. the walls were a fiercely stippled whitewash, so often rewhitened by my father in slack seasons that the paint looked as if it had been squeezed and cracked into the walls. a large electric bulb hung down the center of the kitchen at the end of a chain that had been hooked into the ceiling; the old gas ring and key still jutted out of the wall like antlers. in the corner next to the toilet was the sink at which we washed, and the square tub in which my mother did our clothes. above it, tacked to the shelf on which were pleasantly ranged square, blue-bordered white sugar and spice jars, hung calendars from the public national bank on pitkin avenue and the minsker progressive branch of the workmen's circle; receipts for the payment of insurance premiums, and household bills on a spindle; two little boxes engraved with hebrew letters. one of these was for the poor, the other to buy back the land of israel.”
