Jill Ker Conway, author of one of the most celebrated memoirs of recent decades, is also the premier anthologist of women's autobiographical writing. In Her Own Words is Conway's distillation of women's experience from the British Commonwealth world she came from, compared with major themes in women's lives in the United States, which is now her home.

In this dazzling collection, we meet twelve remarkable women--from Shirley Chisholm, the West Indian-raised girl who became the first black woman to be elected to the U.S. Congress, to Janet Frame, the brilliant New Zealand writer who overcame involuntary treatment in a mental institution to write one of the archetypal analyses of the postcolonial experience. We learn how the world of politics and the private self intersect in the four offshoots of the old British world, and see how these women have made a difference--by their honesty, by the scale of their struggle for self-knowledge and autonomy, and by the power of their writing.

Includes writing from:

Patricia Adam-Smith Lillian Hellman
Rosemary Brown Dorothy Hewett
Kim Chernin Robin Hyde
Shirley Chisholm Dorothy Livesay
Lauris Edmond Sally Morgan
Janet Frame Gabrielle Roy

Great protection and perfect fit for the ipad 10th generation
Color: Black+Red
I purchased this case for my iPad 10th Generation and I'm very happy with it. The case fits perfectly and provides excellent protection without adding too much bulk. The material feels durable, and all the buttons, camera, and charging port are easy to access. I also like that it keeps my iPad secure while still looking stylish. Overall, it's a great value for the price and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable iPad 10th Gen case.

Happy
Color: Black+Red
Very happy with purchase. I bought this to replace my son’s otterbox heavy duty case because the plastic kept breaking around it to where it dropped for the last time and shattered the screen protector and chipped the corner of the iPad. This was a fraction of the price and seems way more durable.

Good protection for your tablet.
Color: Navy+Black
Nice case although not as adjustable as my previous one it wears well and protects my iPad well. Its look does not detract from the tablet.
