Summary, etc |
Often compared to Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Talie, Woman on the Edge of Time has been hailed as a classic of feminist speculative fiction. Disturbing and forward thinking, Marge Piercy's remarkable novel will speak to a new generation of readers. Connie Ramos has been unjustly incarcerated in a mental institution with no hope of release. The authorities view her as a danger to herself and to others. Her family has given up on her. But Connie has a secret - a way to escape the confines of her cell. She can see the future..
