Why read it?
1 author picked The Other Daughters of the Revolution as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book is very emotional and affecting to read for me. It presents two of the earliest autobiographical accounts from American women, with an introduction by Sharon Halevi. As they trace their lives, they depict a world in which childhood, as modern readers understand, does not exist, and even young women need to navigate the intricacies of their controlling and patriarchal world. I often ask what has changed and what has unfortunately stayed the same.
From Hoda's list on childhood and globalization.
