Day is a memoir written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around the author's experiences during her time in France, particularly her involvement in relief work amidst the tumult of war. The book primarily highlights the lives of French women during this critical period, showcasing their resilience, struggles, and the impact of war on their daily lives. The opening of the memoir introduces the author reflecting on her motivations and initial misunderstandings regarding relief work in France. As she prepares for her journey to the front, she humorously conveys her anticipation and naivety regarding the challenges she will face, including the awkwardness of a standardized uniform. Day describes her initial experiences with the destruction wrought by the war, setting a tone that combines personal anecdotes with poignant observations about the resilience of the French people, especially women, as they navigate the hardships brought by conflict. The text emphasizes themes of compassion, community, and the enduring spirit of those affected by war, providing a rich backdrop for the stories that will unfold throughout the book.
