Sexism that isn't wrong?
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I would argue that any sexism is wrong in our world but Joy Chant's novel shows a matriarchical world where men and women exist in great love and peace. When one man wants to do something different, the woman who controls him demonstrates her love for him by letting him go. To me, this was a wonderfully powerful example of female dominant and male submissive dynamics.
A wonderfully imaginative story of a different world.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This is a book I have read and re-read. A story of a different world, a strong, honorable woman and difficult choices. Throw in a once-in-a-lifetime love and you have the makings of a story that stays with you long after you have finished the book. All of Joy Chant's books are wonderful escapes into other worlds, but with old fashioned heroism and morals.
