Description

Irene, a rebellious product of an American 1950s upbringing, has fled from a repressive and sexist society into a life of apparent equality and adventure as part of the elite Trans-Temporal Authority's cadre of travelers.

Under the tutelage of Ernst, a friend/lover and teacher/father, Irene has achieved status and dignity.

Irene and Ernst are assigned to a Muslim world where they meet Zubedeyeh, a young girl whose creativity is being transformed into madness by the male chauvinistic society in which she lives.

Vowing to rescue her, Irene unleashes a destructive cycle of violence. Originally published in 1978, The Two of Them is a powerful portrait of a future sexist society.

This modern classic conveys its politics with rigor and complexity, in a story filled with suspense and unforgettable characters.
