<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Anarchist, journalist, drama critic, advocate of birth control and free love, Emma Goldman was the most famous--and notorious--woman in the early twentieth century. This abridged version of her two-volume autobiography takes her from her birthplace in czarist Russia to the socialist enclaves of Manhattan's Lower East Side. Against a dramatic backdrop of political argument, show trials, imprisonment, and tempestuous romances, Goldman chronicles the epoch that she helped shape: the reform movements of the Progressive Era, the early years of and later disillusionment with Lenin's Bolshevik experiment, and more. Sounding a call still heard today, <b>Living My Life</b> is a riveting account of political ferment and ideological turbulence.<ul><li><p>First time in Penguin Classics</p></li><li><p>Condensed to half the length of Goldman's original work, this edition is accessible to those interested in the activist and her extraordinary era</p></li></ul><p> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Emma Goldman (1869-1940) came to America from Russia when she was sixteen.
