Summary of Binding Memories: Women as Makers and Tellers of History in Magude, Mozambique (Gutenberg-e)

Working in rural Mozambique where women if asked directly, usually deny any knowledge of his-tory, Heidi Gengenbach is still able to discover from their unconventional accounts -- in voice, markings, and social remappings -- that the women of Magude have coped and adjusted to the upheavals of colonialism, capitalism, and Christianity with greater strength and resilience than the men.
