| Summary, Etc. |
- Summary, etc. - "A ground-breaking collection that brings together the personal narratives of women writers of several generations. Records the different passages of their lives--growing up, going to school, falling in love, getting married, becoming single again, striking out, earning a living, becoming mothers and grandmothers, surviving war, going away, coming home again." [www.ateneopress.org]
"The narratives of World War II might well be read as a kind of countermemory. This is war as seen through the eyes of the noncombatants, the women whose daily struggle to keep things going, to enable their families to survive with a measure of decency and grace, was no less heroic than the struggle in the battlefields..." [from the Editor's Preface]
