description: This anthology offers an introduction to the first major flowering of Russian women's writing between the years 1835 and 1860, introducing the reader to such significant figures as Elena Gun, Mariya Zhukova, Nadezhda Durova, and Avdotya Panaeva. Newly translated, the selections show the diversity of women's writing in the period, as well as the inevitably interconnected nature of theme and treatment among different authors.
