Plot

Written in 1929 by a dedicated social activist, it chronicles a woman's escape from grinding rural poverty into a world of politics and revolution. Agnes Smedley drew upon her own struggles to achieve spiritual consciousness in this fascinating exploration of race, class, and sex. Filled "with erotic heat which informs every page." — Village Voice.
