I remember a friend up the street lending me this book. It was great. I recall it had a super bright blue sky on the cover and these wild jungle type plants and the girl standing there in the middle. ( ) Impressive. ?áThis would actually be darn good for adult fans of Time Travel SF to read. ?áAnd fans of Clan of the Cave Bear, for that matter. ?áI wrote the description here, so I don't have too much to add. ?áI will say that there is a clue that Mazer wrote it, in that a big concern is how a society responds to women's menstruation, esp. to ritual (or lack thereof) attached to a teen's first blood. ?áBut it's about a lot more than that. ?áIt's even got a philosophical thing going on that has nothing to do with the multiple themes of 'civilized' vs. 'primitive' lifestyles. ?áI particularly liked the 'eye-contact' game Zan played in the beginning in NYC. ?áI was particularly disturbed by her mother's inattentiveness to her questions and concerns. ?áAnd I think the ending, especially, would be terrific fodder for group discussions. ?á So, yes, I do recommend it for groups, whether of older 'tweens, of teens, or of adults. Interesting read ... the time spent in the past was facinating ... a lot of details on rituals, inter-personal relationships, behaviors and beliefs. The ending was a little too abrupt ... not that happy endings, and neatly tied-up plot-endings are necessary ... still, I was wondering if the last few pages were torn out or something. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
