The book explores the lives of thirty women from Schönebeck, East Germany, over fifty years, documenting their experiences through a collective archive of letters and photographs. It provides insights into "ordinary" life in postwar Germany, highlighting their reflections on childhood during the Nazi era and the reunification period. The women’s shared interactions with official power and their dedication to maintaining a German identity are central themes, showcasing how they navigated daily life in both the GDR and the Federal Republic.
