This work is about the lives of young "ordinary" Czech women who came of age in the aftermath of the 1989 Velvet Revolution. The book contains a collection of interviews with 14 women of similiar age and education, but with varying work, marital and childbearing experiences. Three additional chapters outline the design of the study, the social and historical forces that have shaped these women's lives, and the common themes emerging out of the interviews, linking them to both legacies of communism and the postcommunist transition.
