Taking as inspiration his mother’s own Red Cross service, novelist Luis Alberto Urrea has delivered an overlooked story of women’s heroism in World War II. With its portrait of friendship and valor in harrowing circumstances, Good Night, Irene, explores the “Donut Dollies,” an all-women volunteer group launched by the Red Cross during WWII.
