Trade Review
In Daughters of the Bear, these Korean women raise up their candid voices in an open ended dialog with the reader. Books such as this make visible that which has been invisible so far. I encourage anyone who is interested in Korean culture, Korean women, and the situation in modern Korea to read this book. -- Professor Chang Pilwha, Ewha Womans University Graduate School Korean Women's Institute Asian Center for Women's Studies * From The Foreword *
