_Ammonite_ is a really good book. (My qualification for that term, BTW, is
that it have both a good idea, and be well executed.) It examines the lives
of inhabitants of a planet which only supports females, killing the males.
A woman from off planet who is sent there with a mission must work with the
culture and its mindsets. Hope this helps.
However, I am startled that it is in your "rare books section." Not to
detract from the novel in any way, but it was a paperback original just a
few years ago, and I believe is still readily available in paperback. Are
you sure you have located the correct book?
