5.0 out of 5 stars women's journalism from the 1920s, January 7, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Journalism of Milena Jesenska: A Critical Voice in Interwar Central Europe (Hardcover)
Milena Jesenska, the Czech journalist who died in the concentration camp of Ravensbruck, has always interested me -- NOT because Kafka carried on a correspondence with her but because she is one of the few early twentieth century Central European female journalists whose work is available to us. Her articles were a good source for me in my researching a social history of the women in my family Where She Came From: A Daughter's Search For Her Mother's History but I had to translate them myself. This book translates a good selection of Jesenska's work and the introduction is an excellent way to begin to get to know who she was. For those of you who haven't read it, however, the following book by Buber-Neumann is a must! Milena: The Tragic Story of Kafka's Great Love
