A wealth of rare, firsthand material that sheds light on the everyday life of ordinary women in Russia from the early 1900s to the present day. The eight women interviewed represent diverse social backgrounds and geographical regions--and all were born before the Bolshevik revolution. A REVOLUTION OF THEIR OWN illuminates the harsh reality of women's daily lives in the Soviet Union, as well as expanded opportunities for women.
