Summary

At a very young age, Marcia Breece came face to face with a disconcerting truth that would haunt her for decades. Because she was a girl, she would be molded to fulfill a role that had long been defined for her: to be obedient, coy, and self-effacing--and forever secondary to men. The free-spirited, independent nature Marcia demonstrated as a child slowly eroded, unable to overcome the powerful influence of societal expectations and the autocratic rule of the men in her life.Finding This Place beautifully recounts Marcia's remarkable journey as she breaks the chains of Training and struggle to find the person within. It is a story that will inspire both women and men to follow one's own path--no matter how bumpy--and inevitably arrive at that place that is uniquely their own.
