Early in the 23rd century, men and women of the Lines are the interpreters for earth and aliens. The public hates them and believes they are spoiled, while in fact, they live in poverty. The women are secretly developing their own language, to describe women's reality... This is the fist int he 'Native Tongue" trilogy--followed by "The Judas Rose" and "Earthsong."
