Ilyon Woo's "The Great Divorce" is a dramatic, richly textured
narrative history of early America's most infamous divorce case. A
young mother singlehandedly challenged her country's notions of
women's rights, family, and marriage itself--all in a bid to win
back her kidnapped children from the celibate, religious sect known
as the Shakers. Pulling together the pieces of this saga from
crumbled newspapers, Shaker diaries, and long-forgotten letters,
Woo delivers the first full account of Eunice Chapman's epic
five-year struggle. A moving story about the power of a mother's
love, "The Great Divorce" is also a memorable portrait of a rousing
challenge to the values of a young nation.
