It is the year 2205 and the women of Earth are once again property. Two women, Nazareth and Michaela - one a brilliant linguist, the other a rebel servant - are destined to challenge the power of men. What neither woman reallses is that a revolution is already underway: women, hldden away in Barren houses, are slowly creating a language of their own to free them from men's control and make resistance possible for all women. As Michaela and Nazareth's worlds collide, each of their secrets threatens to reveal the presence of a women's native tongue. Rich in wry wit, fierce intellect, and faith in the subversive power of language, this book has become a cult classic since its first publication in 1984. Subtly weaving ideas about gender relations, power, technology, and consclousness Into her grlpping story, Elgin creates a stunningly original novel - the first book in the acclaimed Native Tongue trilogy.
