The Daughters of the Southwind have become Daughters of the Wild Country. The three beautiful McCleod sisters made it West to San Francisco and into the arms of men who love them--but not into "happily ever after" lives. Tamsen, off to Russian-Alaska with her husband, Dan Tallant, is soon caught up in a web of international and sexual intrigue, between the powerful and the power seekers. Dan disappears on a mysterious mission and she must make her own way into the wilderness, become "Madam Franklin" again with girls and games to tempt lonely miners. Arab and Em follow her North to begin new lives in a world where nature is raw, men are rough: and love, when it comes, shines like a gold nugget, unexpected and bright in the cruel, cold Alaskan waters

“A gorgeous, different, and completely engrossing book. Burian’s writing is transporting -- and exactly what I needed right now.” — Jessica Valenti, author of Sex Object: A Memoir In rural West Virginia, Joanie and her foster siblings live on a farm tending a mysterious plant called the vine. The older girls are responsible for cultivating the vine, performing sacred rituals to make it grow. After Joanie’s arranged marriage goes horribly wrong, leaving her widowed and with a baby, she plots her escape with the help of her foster brother, Cello. But before they can get away, her baby goes missing and Joanie, desperate to find him, turns to the vine, understanding it to be far more powerful than her siblings realize. She begins performing generations-old rituals to summon the vine’s power and goes on a perilous journey into the wild, pushing the boundaries of her strength and sanity to bring her son home. Daughters of the Wild is an utterly absorbing debut that explores the female mind in captivity and the ways in which both nature and women fight domination. Like The Bell Jar set in rural Appalachia, Daughters of the Wild introduces a fierce new heroine and a striking new voice in fiction.

This is the first published account of an oddly neglected aspect of American history--the racial and sexual confrontation of the Indian women and the white man on our frontiers. Mr. O'Meara traces this fascinating relationship from earliest times, showing us the Indian woman in all the roles of her obscure history; as the victim of mass rape, as slave concubine; trading-post and rendezvous prostitute, casual blanket-sharer, hospitality gift to a passing trader. We observe her, too, as the wife a' la façon du pays, cast adrift in a hostile world when her trader husband returns to civilization. An sometimes as the loved and respected wife of a distinguished, even great, man--like the Cree girl who became the Baroness Stratchona, or the Ojibway bride who was known and loved as Lady Douglas. Mr. O'Meara probes all these relationships, basing his study on the journals, memoirs, chronicles, and letters left by the men who lived among the Indians. Along the way, he uncovers such little-reported phenomena as the part played by raw sexual desire in our nation's westward expansion, and the mystical hope of "power transference" with which Indian husbands offered their wives for a night to white traders. Told with sympathy and humanity, Daughters of the Country is a warm and moving story, as well as an important historical document.--Jacket flap

The story of three generations in twentieth-century China that blends the intimacy of memoir and the panoramic sweep of eyewitness history—a bestselling classic in thirty languages with more than ten million copies sold around the world, now with a new introduction from the author. An engrossing record of Mao’s impact on China, an unusual window on the female experience in the modern world, and an inspiring tale of courage and love, Jung Chang describes the extraordinary lives and experiences of her family members: her grandmother, a warlord’s concubine; her mother’s struggles as a young idealistic Communist; and her parents’ experience as members of the Communist elite and their ordeal during the Cultural Revolution. Chang was a Red Guard briefly at the age of fourteen, then worked as a peasant, a “barefoot doctor,” a steelworker, and an electrician. As the story of each generation unfolds, Chang captures in gripping, moving—and ultimately uplifting—detail the cycles of violent drama visited on her own family and millions of others caught in the whirlwind of history.

Among the best-known and most prolific French women writers of the sixteenth century, Madeleine (1520–87) and Catherine (1542–87) des Roches were celebrated not only for their uncommonly strong mother-daughter bond but also for their bold assertion of poetic authority for women in the realm of belles lettres. The Dames des Roches excelled in a variety of genres, including poetry, Latin and Italian translations, correspondence, prose dialogues, pastoral drama, and tragicomedy; collected in From Mother and Daughter are selections from their celebrated oeuvre, suffused with an engaging and enduring feminist consciousness. Madeleine and Catherine spent their entire lives in civil war–torn Poitiers, where a siege of the city, vandalism, and desecration of churches fueled their political and religious commentary. Members of an elite literary circle that would inspire salon culture during the next century, the Dames des Roches addressed the issues of the day, including the ravages of religious civil wars, the weak monarchy, education for women, marriage and the family, violence against women, and the status of women intellectuals. Through their collaborative engagement in shared public discourse, both mother and daughter were models of moral, political, and literary agency.
