Description

Gina Misiroglu (ed); Mary Pipher (fr). When women describe growing up, their memories of childhood & adolescence are a rich blend of joy, pain, & discovery. This book celebrates these special moments -- as expressed through the words of over 40 women of this century. Based on both original & published story, poetry, & song, famous & not-so-famous women from all areas of life share the rituals & everyday moments that were unique to shaping their girlhood experiences. Some writers tell of their relationships with their parents. Whether fiction or autobiographical, many writers & poets visit rites of passage issues in their works. Some speak out on how their checkered childhood has shaped them into being the leaders they are today.
