This book is a beautiful description of the timeless strength of female friendship and confidence.

For much of my life I felt alone, but over the years a circle of women came to love me and I came to love each of those women in return.

Every girl -- no matter how small-minded or unfortunate -- had a mother who nursed and cared for her.
