Lin Gentry's First Book 'Episodes in a Cultural Revolution' is a Fast-Paced Account of a Woman Who Defied Social Conventions

OAKLAND, Calif., June 28, 2022 (Newswire.com) - Fulton Books author Lin Gentry, a resolute woman, has completed her debut "Episodes In A Cultural Revolution": an awe-inspiring life story of a woman who struggled with the gender expectations of the era. As a kid growing up in the 1950s, Lin Gentry noticed that she didn't belong in any accepted societal gender roles. She's one of many women who challenged traditional values and customs and revolted against the repression of women.

Gentry shares, "Episodes in a Cultural Revolution chronicles the journey of an American girl, first in childhood and throughout her adolescence into adulthood. During the tumultuous decades of a rapidly changing culture, from post-World War II and into the 1980s, she took on every challenge in her way.

A young girl who grew up ahead of her time feeling she never really fit into any of the cultural gender expectations of her time, she jokes, 'I never really knew what a scofflaw was until I realized I was one.'

She forged her own path through childhood as a tomboy and into the fast-paced, turbulent youth revolt of the '60s. In the vanguard of a massive societal movement, constantly questioning authority and finding comfort in the fog of drugs and alcohol, she moved about from Manhattan to Mexico City to central Washington State to eventually return to her native Northern California Bay Area. Working a number of nontraditional jobs while navigating law school, she met the challenges of becoming Oakland Fire Department's first woman firefighter in 1980.

Episodes is a thoughtful, sometimes racy, self-examination of the transformation of a young woman from a refusal to conform to eventual determination to embrace the journey to herself."

Published by Fulton Books, Lin Gentry's book is a powerful memoir of a woman insistently maintaining the personal freedom she has fought to achieve. This read contains Gentry's personal struggles, confrontations, and triumphs amid the cultural turmoil.

It's a thought-provoking read that deserves a spot in anyone's library.
