"Whether we are Jews or Catholic Chicanas, grew up on a corn farm or the oil-dark lot of a radiator shop in East Los Angeles, we come of age in the same human ways," writes Gary Soto in his forward to Coming of Age in America: A Multicultural Anthology, edited by Mary Frosch. A collection of works by writers from fifteen different backgrounds, Coming of Age in America traverses the universal territory we all experience as we grow up, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, or class, and reminds us that, ultimately, our common experiences are more binding than our differences are divisive.
