Marthe Rachel Gold’s War Stories, set in World War II New York City, is the story of Ruth, a young musician from a working class immigrant family who has come to the city in pursuit of her music, her freedom, and her politics. Exploring the world through music, through labor action, and through relationships, she is committed in her support of the war. Her pro-war views are challenged by Nat, who comes from a wealthy industrial Jewish family and sees all wars as capitalist and corrupt. War Stories embeds their personal struggles within the context of those of workers and conscientious objectors, against a backdrop of anti-semitism, racism, and union struggles. It is awash in the music of the time period.
