At Our Core: Women Writing About Power

Thursday, August 19th, 2010

Sandra Haldeman Martz — whose bestselling anthology series celebrating women’s lives brought us I Am Becoming the Woman I’ve Wanted (winner of a 1995 American Book Award) and If I Had a Hammer: Women’s Work — explores another profound issue for women: our concept of power in our lives.  At Our Core: Women Writing about Power articulates the awesome breadth and subtlety of what power means to women.

These stories, poems, and photographs convey the phenomenon of women being in control of their own lives.  We know these women — some of whom have been hurt physically, emotionally, or spiritually — who yearn to be understood, to be allowed to participate as equals, to live each day with peace.

Breathtakingly honest and courageous, these voices honor and validate women’s uniquely personal definitions of power.  Women will cry and rejoice at the searing beauty of these intimately familiar stories.
