Strangers to each other, they have no idea where they are or how they came to be there with eight other women, their heads shaved, guarded by two inept yet vicious jailers. Doing hard labor under a sweltering sun, the prisoners soon learn what links them: in each woman's past is a sexual scandal with a powerful man. They pray for rescue but as the hours turn into days and the days into weeks and months, it becomes clear that the women must rescue themselves. The Natural Way of Things is a lucid and illusory fable and a brilliantly plotted novel of ideas that reminds us of humankind's own vast contradictions-the capacity for savagery, selfishness, resilience, and redemption all contained by a single, vulnerable body"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://mpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S75C9649545</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://mpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S75C9649545</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wood, Charlotte]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://mpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/9649545075</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798217047383/MC.GIF&amp;client=notsobplp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Weekend]]></title><description><![CDATA["For nearly four decades, lifelong friends Jude, Wendy, Adele, and Sylvie have seen each other through romances, child-rearing, changing careers, divorces, medical recoveries, and general aging. But now Sylvie has died, and the three remaining women are tasked with cleaning out her beach house before it's sold. Thrust together In this weathered old house on the ocean, where the ghosts of their younger selves compete with their current realities, the women ponder a collective lifetime of loves and grievances, disappointments and successes, and ultimately, how a life can change in a single unexpected instant - or over the course of a weekend"--]]></description><link>https://mpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S75C7994397</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://mpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S75C7994397</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wood, Charlotte]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2020 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://mpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/7994397075</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593086438/MC.GIF&amp;client=notsobplp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
