Daughters of a Coral Dawn

"The sky begins to shimmer with the silver of brilliant star clusters, the eerie radince of red and blue fluorescence. One huge moon, glowing gold, is soon joined by two others, much smaller, which slowly rise above the horizion, each jagged in shape as if carelessly formed. Night falls suddenly and completely, and we sit together in a glorious royal blue world illuminated with silver. It is mother who speaks, softly: "So lovely a world ... is surely meant for women."--p. 4 of cover.
