EVERYBODY'S GRANDDAUGHTER

In search of life advice and without a living grandmother of her own, the author writes letters to unknown old women. The letters contain only one sentence: “If I were your granddaughter, what life advice would you give me?”. The letters put in motion a torrent of events, initiating meetings and releasing untold stories of women who had negotiated their life choices with the patriarchal society in their own different ways. Through the same process as the author searches for answers for herself, her “temporary grandmothers” look back and question their own lives.
