      The text presents some (auto)biographical books written by Slovenian women immigrants to the US or their descendants. The books deal with the immigrant experiences of women from the first & the second immigration waves. From Slovenia to America by Marie Prisland includes considerable information on Slovenian history, Slovenian communities in the US, & notable women & men, along with her own autobiography. Immigrant Woman by Mary Molek is a fictionalized biography of the author's mother -- an immigrant woman at the beginning of the 20th century, who led an extremely poor, but nevertheless uncompromisingly principled & proud, life. Irene P. Odorizzi edited a compilation of 21 life stories, titled The Footsteps through Time. The majority of the narrators (19 of 21) were Slovenian immigrant women who had arrived in America with the first immigration wave & they told the stories about the hardships & extremely hard work. Mirella Besednjak described her immigrant life after WWII in Roza med trni, published recently in Slovenia. The immigrant experience is described by Josephine Janezic in Pepca's Struggle. Adapted from the source document. Read less
