A Feminist’s Self-Discovery

About the Book

This book consists of diaries and letters Dr. Arisan wrote over some thirty years, enhanced by later commentary inserted to help the reader understand better what the earlier writings are about. What they show is how difficult it was for the author to gain control of her own life.
