Our Revolution. 520 $a "A daughter's memoir of her mother evolves beautifully into a narrative of the sweeping changes in women's lives in the twentieth century. Our Revolution, vivid and rich, reads like a nineteenth-century novel as we follow the love story of a woman and her family through the twentieth-century civil rights, antiwar, and feminist movements. Born into Boston society in 1923, Jenny Moore rebelled by going to college and later emerged as a writer. At twenty-one, she married Paul Moore, a decorated war hero who became Bishop Paul Moore, and joined him in a socially radical ministry. Eventually, they had nine children. "Everything was just starting," Jenny protested-meaning a new independent life inspired by the women's rights movement-when she was diagnosed with cancer at fifty. Jenny bequeathed her eldest daughter her unfinished writing, and there Honor Moore finds the mother whose loss had long haunted her. Our Revolution is a gripping account of two women navigating the twentieth century and a daughter's story of the mother who shaped her life as an artist and a woman"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Moore, Honor, $d 1945- 600 10 $a Moore, Honor, $d 1945- $x Family. 600 10 $a Moore, Jenny, $d 1923- 650 0 $a Mothers and daughters $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women authors, American $v Biography. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 4 952 $l NYPE343 $d 20201006012716.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200505015118.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20200502010336.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20200312011258.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FF435C58642611EA8505CA0797128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
