Beauty
by Sheri S. Tepper
On her sixteenth birthday Beauty is seemingly able to sidestep her
aunt's curse. Instead she is transported to the future. Here begins her
adventures as she travels magically back and forth in time to visit
places both imaginary and real. Finally she comes to understand what has
been her special gift to humanity all along. For in Beauty, there is
beauty. And in beauty, magic. Without our enchanted places, humanity
is no more than an upstart ape. And this, we realise is why Beauty must
be saved, both in the fantastical world of Tepper's novel and in the actual
world where we live.
