Watched over by guards, the women have no memory of how they got there, no notion of time, and only 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. 546 $a Translated from the French. 650 0 $a Women prisoners $v Fiction. 700 12 $i Reprint of (manifestation) $a Harpman, Jacqueline. $t Moi qui n'ai pas connu les hommes. $l English 700 1 $a Schwartz, Ros, $e translator. 700 1 $a Mackintosh, Sophie, $e writer of introduction. 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240502013859.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20220518025114.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D3CC9F1E166311EA9B100A4E97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
