To survive Totalitarianism and retain their humanity, Czech women writers went underground to write, paint, sculpt, and create supportive communities. This book explores fiction, poetry, and life-sustaining activities of Eva Svankmajerová, Mother of Czech Surrealism, and Eda Kriseová, journalist, fiction writer, essayist, and activist who served in President Václav Havel's first Cabinet, among other Czech women who wrote and engaged in dissent during the years when Czechoslovakia ached under Soviet rule.
