Certain books stay in your consciousness long after you've read them and for me this was one of them books. I found it in a barely there bookstore just off Grafton St in my dinner hour and probably chose it based on the title alone so had no idea what to expect , but i remember liking the difference of it , the courage of writing about original ( to me) fantastical concepts in a level headed way . Though I remember the book , and the pleasure of reading it , i can't remember most of the story , which would make for a decent re-read if I could track it down in paper format.

About the author

Dorothy Bryant's novels and plays use a variety of settings, from the allegorical island of The Kin of Ata Are Waiting for You to her own San Francisco Bay Area (Ella Price's Journal, Miss Giardino, Confessions of Madame Psyche), revolutionary ninenteenth-century France (Dear Master), and South America (Anita, Anita). Her underlying theme is always the same: the struggle of the human spirit to know and become itself.
