What are the forces that cause us to strike out and harm each
other? Captivity explores the way in which the individual is held
hostage by society; how the forces of racism, sexism, and classism
frequently express themselves as violence within the family. The
book also explores a deeper captivity, like the Jews in Egypt
yearning for the Promised Land, the soul trapped in exile from God.
