...this book were rebels in some way. Few rebelled in a political sense-Anuta Sharrow belonged to a revolutionary study group in Kiev, but her first love was music. Nor was their rebellion directed specifically against their parents; interestingly enough, in the one case where this pattern does fit, a daughter rebelled against her mother, a university lecturer, by adopting a traditional feminine role.
