The Wild Girls, Paperback

Winner of:
Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, National Book Foundation
Newly revised and presented here in book form for the first time, this Nebula Award-winning story tells of two captive ``dirt children`` in a society of sword and silk, whose determination to find a glimpse of justice leads to a violent and loving end. Also included is the nonfiction essay ``Staying Awake While We Read`` which demolishes the pretensions of corporate publishing and the basic assumptions of capitalism, and ``Outspoken Author Interview,`` which reveals the hidden dimensions of America's best-known sci-fi author.
