Make inferences and draw conclusions about the author’s purpose in the novel a tree grows in brooklyn by betty smith. provide evidence from the text to support your analysis.

I think the author wants to share her experiences about her life in Brooklyn. Based on the title, the author wrote her story about the small and close-knit neighborhood she had lived in. However, many people believe that the reason was more on political and social issues, that the city was facing and not on the social significance that she had written.
