Title: Button, button, who has the button?
First published: 1988
Description: In a two-act play which combines poetry and prose, Ruth Harriet Jacobs brings to life the interwoven lives of twenty women.

In the tradition of My Mother, Myself and The Joy Luck Club, Button, Button, Who Has The Button? depicts the hidden, neglected world of women "who have been silenced or have spoken and not been heard." This life-affirming, empowering work can be used for dramatic presentation or as a text for women's discussion and support groups. It is ideal for any woman coming into the realization of her own identity and worth.
