THE MONEY GOD is the story of Celia’s life. Money was a driving force in her life. With it she had everything; without it she was vulnerable and alone. Cel allows the pursuit of money to take over her life and control every action. She sacrifices her family and her morals for the almighty dollar.
THE MONEY GOD traces the lives of three generation of Jewish women from the rural Catskill Mountains during the 1930’s to the challenges of city life in New York in the 1960’s. Along the way, these women face financial struggles, family rifts and the consequences of global conflict. It is a novel of love, love lost, lust and greed.
My thoughts
THE MONEY GOD by Zena Livingston follows the life of Celia Cohen from the Catskills in upstate New York to New York City. Celia loses her first love and husband, Henry and determines to make a better life for herself. To Celia making a better life for herself means having more money, and with this goal we actually witness the fact that Celia never has a truly happy and fulfilling life.
