Zandy captures the stories of working class women,
This review is from: Calling Home: Working-Class Women's Writings (Paperback)
Janet Zandy strives to bring us snapshots, thoughts, and memories of the lives of working class and immigrant women through poetry, testimonials, histories, and short stories. Perhaps the most compelling selections from this anthology are those that deal with the tragedy of the Triangle shirtwaist fire and its aftermath, as Zandy rightly lends that seminal event a key place in the history of the women's and labor movements. It serves as a suitable classroom companion for students of gender studies, women's history, labor history, and United States history. Overall, a fascinating read, to be consumed as a whole or in small sections, savory and intimate.
