Lebanese people suffered tremendously during the 15 years of war and Lebanese women experienced times of anguish, greif, and distress.How did these women cope with the trauma and tragedy of the war given the context of the historical, social, religious, economic, and political structure of Lebanese society? What were their hopes and dreams? What were their loses? What were the factors that helped them resist violence and liberate themselves from their oppressors? Three generations of middle-class Lebanese Muslim women with different voices but with one heart that beats for their Lebanon shared their stories and experiences during the war.
