Women's Barracks

This is the story of what happens when scores of young girls live intimately together in a French military barracks. Many of these girls utterly innocent and inexperienced met other women who had lived every type of experience. Their problems their temptations their fights and failures are those faced by all women who are forced to live together without normal emotional outlets. The girls who chose Tereska Torres the author as their confidante poured out to her their most intimate feelings their secret thoughts. So this book with all of its revealment and tenderness is an important book because it tells a story that had never been truly told--the story of women in war.
