It intricately brings together memory, history, and artistic prose. This is an unforgettable book about the women who fought and the importance of telling our own histories.
I wish I read these books earlier in life. It would have saved me a lot of heartache and frustration in navigating life, my career and setting up a plan for myself to reach my goals.
