Produktbeschreibung
In 1968 shortly before her death, Dr. Willa Rehnfield translates the diary of Lucienne Crozier (the L.C. of the title), a young French woman forced to leave France with her lover after becoming involved in the French Revolution of 1848. Dr. Rehnfield's literary executor, Jane Amme -- a Berkeley radical on the run for activities she participated in in the 1960s -- discovers the translated diary and is intrigued with the parallels between Lucienne's depiction of the revolution and her own experience at Berkeley and decides to "retranslate" the diary's end. A highly stylized book, L.C. was Susan Daitch's first novel and intelligently combines feminist theory with a historical and continental look at revolution.
