| Abstract | "In the Company of Radical Women Writers rediscovers the political commitments and passionate advocacy of seven writers who as young women turned to communism during the Great Depression. Over decades of national crisis, they spoke to issues of labor, land, and love in ways that provide thought-provoking guidance and bracing inspiration in the ongoing fight for justice"-- Provided by publisher. |
