by Malkiel (Author)
It is splendid, finally, to have this novel back in print . . . . Nothing before or since has so successfully captured the political and emotional spirit of the women's strike of 1909. -Alice Kessler-Harris, Rutgers University
Malkiel was a politically sophisticated and well-seasoned socialist organizer and propagandist, and she used the medium [of the diary1to draw out certain lessons about the relationship of class and gender from the events of the strike. Francoise Basch's fine introduction provides the necessary context and makes Malkiel's novel/political tract readily accessible to today's readers. -Mary Jo Buhle, Brown University

Beautifully captures the emotionally charged atmosphere of the 1909 strike. -Industrial and Labor Relations Review

Theresa Malkiel's feminist, feisty, polemical and intensely political novel breathes life into some of the myriad human dramas that animated the early labor movement. -Shelley Fisher Fishkin, University of Texas at Austin
