Acerca de esta escucha
This book is the third in the series, and it follows both Kiss Your Elbow – A Kentucky Memoir, about growing up during the 1940s and 50s,’ and its sequel, Changing the Sheets – A Kentucky Memoir, is my story as a representative of the Silent Generation, and how we found our voice. This book is a “Companion Book” to my second book, Changing the Sheets – A Kentucky Memoir. This book begins with my hard-won freedom, as a divorced woman, by starting my new life in the Highlands area of Louisville – the neighborhood of my dreams. Many women were striking out on their own, at this time. I was eager to join them.
As the generation that took women out of the home and into the workplace, our Silent Generation needed more skills in setting boundaries, and taking up for ourselves. We were used to being told, “It’s not ‘Lady-like,’ to speak ‘out of turn.” Many challenges were part of my journey, but there was a lot of fun and adventure, too.
The time period shown in this book follows the caustic, 1960s, and moves beyond. As you read, you will hopefully recall some good memories of your own. Nostalgia is powerful!
