This volume is the first anthology of contemporary East German women's writing in English translation. It will introduce scholars and general readers to writers whose voices are essential to an understanding of the situation of women in today's changing Europe. Included are short stories, essays, autobiographical sketches, and excerpts from novels, written between 1974 and 1986 by women of the postwar generation. Their work reflects everyday life in the GDR before the fall of the Berlin Wall with vitality, sympathy, humor, and warmth. This literature has been of great significance within the GDR as a public forum for socialcritical discussion, and in the West for its depictionas the volume title suggestsof universal issues confronting women in modern society: women and work, women and family, womens selfdetermination in relation to other people and social institutions.The twentyfive authors represented are Renate Apitz, Irene Bhme, Daniela Dahn, Gabriele Eckart, Christiane Grosz, Monika Helmecke, Helga Knigsdorf, Angela Krauss, Katja LangeMller, Beate Morgenstern, Irmtraud Morgner, Christa Mller, Doris Paschiller, Helga Schubert, Helga Schtz, Maria Seidemann, Angela Stachowa, Gerti Tetzner, Maxie Wander, Petra Werner, Maja Wiens, Christa Wolf, Christina Wolter, Charlotte Worgitzky, and Rosemarie Zeplin.
