Treasures: The Stories Women Tell About the Things They Keep
Kathleen V. Cairns, Eliane Leslau Silverman
This is a book about memory & meaning. These texts bring to light the reflections & stories that women have constructed around the objects they have treasured, which in the past may have been deemed unimportant. These objects contain each woman's life experience & act as a foundation for her values & for the development of her character. The objects are often passed along to other women or handed down to family members, thereby connecting generations of women & creating a collective women's history. Culled from interviews with over one hundred different women, these are rich, compelling & even haunting stories, told in the women's own voices.
