really liked it

Really important not to forget Tillie Olsen. I read it as research for my book that will include stuff about women's labor movement in early 20thcentury in US. Makes us remember how hard it is to break out of social definitions of what we should be--how powerful those definitions are and how crippling to the individual human spirit.
