Through his novel 'Sisters in Our Soul, ' Guy Giamporcaro's characters parallel the rise of social feminism in the twentieth century. The story depicts the lives of two seminal generations of Nazareth College women in Rochester, N.Y., with both groups advancing the cause of women's rights in response to the culture of their times. In 1924, twenty-five Catholic girls enrolled in the newly organized Nazareth College, housed at the time, in a stately old mansion known locally as the 'Glass House.' Several brilliant nuns of the Order of the Sisters of Saint Joseph of Rochester, whose mission, "...to live and work so that many may be one," acted as the driving force behind the quest to advance higher learning for women in western New York. The story follows the trajectory of two unique yet fundamentally indistinguishable classes (1928 & 1974) as lives unexpectedly entwine, and friendships unfold, resulting in the intersection and embellishment of their shared goal of women's equality. In essence, 'Sisters' is a historical-biographical novel. It chronicles the underpinnings of accomplishment that continue to support women to the present day. 'Sisters In Our Soul' will be of particular interest to Nazareth College graduates and all who are mindful of the evolution of small colleges (specifically, those committed to women's education) and to people of today who follow in the footsteps of pioneering women who paved the way to equality in America.
