Reviews
From
Library Journal
This is a
posthumous memoir of Milly Bennett (nee Mildred Bremler), a self-described
member of the Lost Generation who regarded Bolsheviks and Communists with
all the determined idealism and tunnel vision of the times. Bennett's
story moves from her childhood through her beginnings as a reporter in San
Francisco, to more work and a failed marriage in Hawaii, to travels and
reporting in China during the tumultuous Twenties. Outside of editor
Grunfeld's introduction and footnotes, Bennett's later years are not
developed. This is a frank, personal, choppy work that shows Bennett's
gift for recalling detailed conversations. It also shows, yet again, that
interesting, intelligent, independent women did not originate with the
more recent women's movement. This will make a good addition to academic
libraries and larger public libraries with well-developed biography or
history areas.
