Summary

RITUALS OF SURVIVAL: A WOMAN'S PORTFOLIO is Nicholasa Mohr's testimonial to the indomitable women who face urban blight, poverty and, most of all, the limiting roles that men try to create for them. This collection of five short stories and a novella offers valuable portraits of New York City women and the rituals of survival that shape their lives. Mohr's characters demand our support and respect for their declarations of independence and the domestic and social revolutions they pursue. These tales of triumph, pathos, humor, are masterworks from the winner of the New York Times Best Book of the Year, the Jane Addams Book Award, and the Library Journal Award.
