Women Talking

Miriam Toews

A group of Mennonite women face a life-changing decision in this gripping novel based on real events. After learning they were drugged and repeatedly violated, the women must choose between staying within the only world they've ever known, or daring to escape. Through the "minutes" of their all-female symposium, the novel explores themes of collective responsibility, cultural determinism, and forgiveness. This National Bestseller and Governor General's Award nominee has been hailed as "amazing, sad, shocking, but touching" by Margaret Atwood.
