description: A sweeping, multi-generational family saga, Women Don't Need to Write tells the story of Rosa Gerach, now looking back as she celebrates her ninety-fifth birthday in the United States. Her life takes us from Valencia, Spain, in 1900 to Cuba in the throes of revolution. Rosa's is a strong and willful voice as she relates her struggles and tells of her devotion to her large families of boys, whom she endeavors to protect from the violent political turmoil encircling them. Like a Cuban-American Thorn Birds, this novel is a powerful panorama of a woman's troubled, but ultimately successful, voyage beyond mere survival to empowerment and even a measure of prosperity. For Rosa, as her family gathers around her in Miami, the United States is a fulfilled promise of freedom and opportunity. This universal story of love and family preservation will exert its spell upon a wide audience.
