Like the pearl divers of old, my research has taken me deep into the sea of time to gather rare pearls, a treasure of unique personalities from the familiar, and not so familiar women of antiquity. The women, like pearls have been a gathered together on the silken thread of poetry." author, Karen Kay Knauss With the artistry of poetic voice, sensitivity, and style, their challenges to overcome social and moral injustices similar to those of the modern woman have been revealed: gender and racial prejudice, abuse, inequality, rape, dishonor, and betrayal. With the artistry of analogy the history of an ancient pearling industry has been woven into their remarkable life experiences, thus exemplifying their strength, wisdom, and beauty.
