What is the fate of women in a world that belongs to men? And how hard is it to raise their heads and finally start fighting for justice? This is what Elizabeth Wetmore's novel Valentine is about - a novel of incredible power, powerful and righteously fierce. America, the 1970s. The oil boom is sweeping through Texas like a tornado, promising men unprecedented wealth. For women, it promises only men dumbed down by unanticipated profits and rampant drunkenness. On the morning after Valentine's Day, fourteen-year-old Gloria Ramirez shows up on the doorstep of Mary Rose's farm, beaten, frightened, begging for help. The news that she has been raped by a white oilman quickly spreads through the small town, but few believe Gloria's story.
