註釋

Sent unwillingly to a New Caledonian nursing home in 1967, Jeanne remembers and faces her Communist and feminist past (did her actions make a difference?)--along with solitude and old age.Jeanne falls in love with a Spanish man, but also falls deeply in support of the Red Flag. She refuses to be a spectator to the devastating events in the world of the 1930s and 40s, arrives in New Caledonia, where she cofounds the Communist Party and fights for all men, women and children exploited by Colonial powers. She aims to empower the oppressed and have them rise against their oppressors--but not without consequences for her: a bomb attack, constant scrutiny from government agencies and solitude at the end of her life. Inspired by the life of Jeanne Tunica Y Casas (1894 - 1972) The novel incorporates family accounts, documents and translations of her key tracts and articles. The Jeannes of this world, past and present, should never be forgotten.
