Description
A novel for the times, 'Women Talking' by Miriam Toews is a powerful exploration of trauma, silence and resistance. In a remote Mennonite colony, over a hundred girls and women were subjected to brutal attacks - their accounts dismissed as mere fantasy. But what if these events were real? The women come together in secret to confront the truth and plan their escape. With two days to make a decision, they must weigh the risks of rebellion against the fear of reprisal. Will they dare to break free from the silence that has held them captive for so long? A profound and affecting novel, 'Women Talking' is a testament to the strength and resilience of women in the face of unimaginable adversity.
