In this book, a historian of women?s lives turns the lens on her own experience. Her story is ?Midwestern? for its work ethic, modesty, faith, and resilience; ?postmodern? for its sudden changes, strange juxtapositions, and retrospective ?deconstruction of the ideologies that shaped its progress. It describes a life in and out of academia and a search for acceptance, recognition, equality, and freedom. The author of three books on women?s experiences in Russia and Europe, Dr. Marcelline Hutton traces her personal journey from traditional working-class La Porte, Indiana, through college, graduate school, marriage, motherhood, divorce, and independence in Iowa City, Southampton, Kansas City, El Paso, and ultimately Lithuania. She arrives at a place of ?blessed assurance,? recognizing who she was, what she has done, and what she most valued. The book is a testimony of life found and treasured and shared. We are privileged to see her world through this honest, perceptive, and insightful recollection. 3
