Writing of the 1950s, Bernice Morris observes: The victimization of progressives and the sustained attack on communists that took place at the time cannot be allowed to recur. And yet, in these times we face new laws again raised in the name of security. We can learn from a history denied, but barely past.
With compassion and unflinching candour she shows the impact of world events on the intimacy of personal experience. Stuart Macintyre, Reader in History, University of Melbourne
As a child of the 1950s, subject to the usual all-male political discourse, I began wondering what the women were doing, thinking and feeling. And here Bernice Morris tells us: specifically what it was like to be a victim of the Cold War in Australia. Bernice Morriss account of their life is told with good humour, honesty and a remarkable lack of bitterness. Julie Copeland
