Private Spaces, Public Places: A Woman at Home in the World

By Lucina Kathmann

A collection of 20 plus essays finding the author, Lucina Kathmann in widely varied roles and spaces; mothering six adopted orphans in her home in the center of Mexico; tutoring middle school math students in Chicago, creating a story about a backward jumping kangaroo to explain the number line; sampling sheep's brains as the honored guest of the Kurdish PEN chapter, traveling the world as a Vice- President of PEN International, always encouraging women writers working at great odds to make their voices heard. Serious and droll by turns, her stories reveal a world seldom open to outsiders from the West.
