A Jewish American dreamed of socialism - rediscovery of an indomitable author
This amazing story about the women who took over men's jobs to sustain social life during World War II is based on true backgrounds--the author herself was one of them.
What is actually based on the age-old idea of men's superiority?, the young women here at the station of Port Empire, New Jersey, USA. Instead of their absent men, brothers and sons, it is they who keep railway traffic going. Suspiciously they are received by the remaining male colleagues. You are turned on the lowest paid rides and special service regulations forced that are nothing but chicane. And then the conductors are also played against each other.
The present new translation follows the original manuscript and is supplemented by a biographical essay by Carolin Würfel, author of the bestseller »Three women dreamed of socialism: Maxie Wander, Brigitte Reimann, Christa Wolf«.
