The Shore Of Women

Small bookseller stamp on free endpaper. A bright, attractive copy. "A thought-provoking suspenseful love story set in a world we might create, a world in which men and women live apart and love between them no longer exists. And yet there are those who wonder whether such love might be reborn. In a post-nuclear future, women have built a new world on the ruins of the old. It's a world of vast walled cities where women live apart from men, who roam the wilderness outside. Women control all science and technology, determined that men must never regain the power to destroy Earth. And they also control the men by teaching them to worship female beings. Love between men and women is scorned; reproduction is a loveless act. One young woman, Birana, is cruelly expelled from her city for her mother's crime, condemned to wander in the primitive and violent world of men, her very survival threatened daily. Outside the city, a young man named Arvil longs for the time when he will be summoned to the city he regards as a holy place. . . "; 8vo - over 7" - 9" tall
