The enemy they''ve been told is men.When these girls come upon a partially buried home from the distant past they are fascinated by the strange objects—high-heeled shoes teen magazines make-up—found there. What are they to make of these mysterious things which introduce a world they have never known? And what does it mean for their strict society where friendship is forbidden and rules must be obeyed—at all costs?Reminiscent of The Giver but with a feminist twist Nomansland is a powerful shocking story that will challenge young readers'' perspectives and provoke much discussion over the timely and controversial issues presented.
