A Life of Her Own by Milie Carles

Emilie Carles was born in 1900 into the rigidly conservative patriarchal world of a poor and isolated peasant community in the High Alps of France. Her autobiography is the tale of a world that has largely disappeared and of the one that has emerged to take its place. 8 pages of photographs.
Avriel H. Goldberger is Professor of French and Chair of the department at Hofstra University. She is the author of many articles on French literature and of Visions of a New Hero. Her edition and translation of Corinne, or Italy (the first new English edition of the work in nearly a hundred years) was also published by Rutgers University Press
