Watched over by guards, the women have no memory of how they got there, no notion of time, and only a vague recollection of their lives before. As the burn of electric light merges day into night and numberless years pass, a young girl--the fortieth prisoner--sits alone and outcast in the corner. Soon she will show herself to be the key to the others' escape and survival in the strange world that awaits them above ground. Jacqueline Harpman was born in Etterbeek, Belgium, in 1929, and fled to Casablanca with her family during WWII. Informed by her background as a psychoanalyst and her youth in exile, I Who Have Never Known Men is a haunting, heartbreaking post-apocalyptic novel of female friendship and intimacy, and the lengths people will go to maintain their humanity in the face of devastation. Back in print for the first time since 1997, Harpman's modern classic is an important addition to the growing canon of feminist speculative literature."--Back cover. 534 $p Originally published: $c Paris : Stock, 1995. 546 $a Translated from the original French. 650 0 $a Female friendship $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Escapes $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women prisoners $v Fiction. 650 6 $a AmitieÌ feÌminine $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. 650 6 $a EÌvasions $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. 650 6 $a PrisonnieÌres $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. 650 7 $a Detective and mystery stories $2 fast 650 7 $a Female friendship $2 fast 655 0 $a Mystery fiction. 655 0 $a Dystopian fiction. 655 7 $a Dystopian fiction $2 fast 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction $2 fast 655 7 $a Fiction $2 fast 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Dystopian fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Schwartz, Ros, $e translator. 700 1 $a Mackintosh, Sophie, $e writer of afterword. 941 $a 1 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20240224010856.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E7687396C26111EE8AAD6E6423ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
