Book Description
Since 1975, Dr. Marjorie Bard has listed to the homeless–especially homeless women. They have told her their stories despite threats of retaliation and begged her to bring their problems and the social injustice that underlies these problems to the attention to all those who would listen, and those who deny any problem exists. Out of these encounters, as well as Dr. Bard’s own experience with homelessness, emerges Shadow Women.
