100 words per day. This limit is set by the state for every woman in the United States. Every woman is required to wear a meter bracelet, and if the limit is exceeded, the violator will receive an electric shock. Women will soon be deprived of the right to work. Girls are no longer taught to read and write in schools. Their place is now at home, where they must silently obey men. The same fate awaits Dr. Jean McClellan, who must now leave her scientific career, laboratory, and important experiments. But chance will force her to fight to regain her voice - hers, her daughter's and all other women.
