Publisher Description

This novel of awesome beauty and power is a moving saga about people, relationships, and the boundaries of love.

Nominated as one of America’s best-loved novels by PBS’s The Great American Read

Through Jean M. Auel’s magnificent storytelling we are taken back to the dawn of modern humans, and with a girl named Ayla we are swept up in the harsh and beautiful Ice Age world they shared with the ones who called themselves The Clan of the Cave Bear.

A natural disaster leaves the young girl wandering alone in an unfamiliar and dangerous land until she is found by a woman of the Clan, people very different from her own kind. To them, blond, blue-eyed Ayla looks peculiar and ugly—she is one of the Others, those who have moved into their ancient homeland; but Iza cannot leave the girl to die and takes her with them. Iza and Creb, the old Mog-ur, grow to love her, and as Ayla learns the ways of the Clan and Iza’s way of healing, most come to accept her. But the brutal and proud youth who is destined to become their next leader sees her differences as a threat to his authority. He develops a deep and abiding hatred for the strange girl of the Others who lives in their midst, and is determined to get his revenge.

Kermit Fleming ,

The Clan Of The Cavebear

The first time a read this book I regretted buying it. I didn’t like it because I did not understand it.
But about six months later I decided to read it a second time and this time I not only understood it but I enjoyed it.
In fact I enjoyed it so much that I have read it over a dozen times.
And I would still read it again.

Never too late for discovery ... and pleasure!

During one portion of my career, I heard of the "Clan" and the Hobbits. I was too focused on my work to separate the Hobbits from a brotherhood of rabbits. I placed those books that my family all read with a shelf of children's classics.

One summer, I read The Hobbit and the trilogy in a month. I've now discovered the Clan and I only hope that I laughed and cried at the proper times. It's a moving saga and should be enjoyed by all. It might be confused with a commentary on our current society, but would best be understood as a glimpse at where we came from. If the books should give one pause and consider how we treat each other, so much the better.
