Hailed by feminists as one of the most important contributions to women's studies in the last decade, this gripping, beautifully written account describes the daily struggles of women under the Marxist regime in the former republic of Yugoslavia.

This book is poignant. The sentences creep in on you and can often stop you in your tracks. The chapters are short but effective in getting points and feelings across.
It makes you think about what you and others have.
Highly recommend.

I love the title, and the chapter names (Make Up And Other Crucial Questions; Forward To The Past)

I've read about 5 of her other books this year. I love Slavenka Drakulić. This book was her most feminist in nature so I loved it even more. Her writing style speaks to me. Great book!
