Synopsis

Four women from vastly different realities converge in this groundbreaking novel. One lives in a past shaped by the Great Depression, another is a 1970s feminist navigating a patriarchal society, a third hails from a utopian world populated solely by women, and the fourth is a warrior from a society locked in conflict between sexes. Their meeting challenges perceptions and explores the very nature of womanhood.
