This book provides a rich picture of what everyday life was like
for women in Soviet times by presenting the life stories of eight
women who were born in the interwar period. The life stories are
told through interviews with the women who were well educated and
well placed in Soviet society, often in elite positions, and
therefore well able to observe and articulate the wider conditions
for Soviet women besides their own personal circumstances. The
interviews, which are edited and preceded by a full introduction
setting the context, touch on a wide variety of issues: key events
in Soviet history; religion and nationalities policies; and women's
everyday experiences of life in the Soviet Union - growing up and
going to school; education; falling in love and getting married;
giving birth and starting a family; housework and paid employment;
travel; leisure and culture; and remembering the past.
