Edna "Gertrude" Beasley's original memoir was published in Paris in 1925, but ultimately suppressed and lost to history - until now. In 1927, Beasley - a self-proclaimed socialist and staunch feminist who fought for women's rights - disappeared. Her fate remained a mystery until researchers began digging into her story. This book reveals the story of a woman who grew up in abject poverty in rural Texas during the early 1900s, where she battled ongoing internal wars with herself concerning her family, faith, sexual reckoning, and quest for education at a time when women were not supposed to discuss those things
