      About This Book

      Batu's inspirational story dramatizes how tragic and explosive events transform her from being self-centered to self-empowered. Batu fearlessly speaks out against injustice in a male-dominated society. Unwilling to subject herself to a barbaric ritual, she insults the High Priest and creates a persistent enemy throughout the story. She marries the Story Teller to continue her quest for knowledge, but the marriage turns into a test of wills. An event causes Batu to lose worth as it is defined by law, and the council decrees she is to be expelled and thus face certain death. With the Healer's help, she gains a deeper understanding of life as she faces tragedies, final expulsion, and death, courageously and heroically.
