The book traces the migration of these Central European women to several destinations including Argentina, Egypt, Italy, and the United States. The research has been carefully culled from the subjects' letters, personal diaries, and oral interviews. What results is a story that covers the span of three to four generations. The book highlights in biography the story of identity under construction. Each woman's identity surpasses ethnic, national identity or belonging, but at the same time, contains different elements of identity transformation at different stages of the narrator's life. As one narrator said, "While their [the women's] suitcases may be light with personal belongings, their stamina, strength and determination and emotional commitment would sink a battleship."--Publisher description. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Slovenes|zForeign countries|xHistory. 650 0 Women|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85147274 |zSlovenia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n81035365 -781|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99005024 650 0 Slovenes|zForeign countries|vBiography. 650 7 Women.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1176568 650 7 Slovenes|xForeign countries.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1121082 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Emigration and immigration.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/908690 650 7 Women.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0001509 650 7 Womyn.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0001516 651 0 Slovenia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n81035365 |xEmigration and immigration|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00005907|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 651 7 Slovenia.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1212712 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Biographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919896 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 655 7 Biographies.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026049 700 1 Mlekuž, Jernej.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2011033821 700 1 Milharčič-Hladnik, Mirjam.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /names/n88206913 776 08 |iPrint version:|tGoing places.|bFirst edition.|dAkron, Ohio : University of Akron Press, [2014]|z9781937378714 |w(DLC) 2014002919|w(OCoLC)828056655 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=799476|zOnline eBook.
