Crazy Woman
Summary

LILLIAN SCHISSEL
Author of WOMEN'S DIARIES OF THE WESTWARD JOURNEY
Sara Franklin is an outcast among her own white people. Her thirst for knowledge and spirituality is threatening to both her abusive father and her neurotic husband. When she is captured by the Apaches in New Mexico, they dub her "Crazy Woman," and treat her like a slave. Yet, as she begins to learn the ways of her captors, she earns their respect as a strong, clever, even magical, woman. And when her innate sensual hunger is tempted, challenged, and finally satisfied by an Apache warrior, Sara finally embraces her whole self at last, body and soul....
