Book of the Month

Every month I have been featuring a book I've read.  This final month's feature is The Island of Sea Women by Lisa See.

According to Goodreads (and I agree with their assessment), this beautiful, thoughtful novel illuminates a unique and unforgettable culture, one where the women are in charge, engaging in dangerous physical work, and the men take care of the children.

A classic Lisa See story—one of women’s friendships and the larger forces that shape them—The Island of Sea Women introduces readers to the fierce female divers of Jeju Island and the dramatic history that shaped their lives.
