A 1978 novel by Joanna Russ. Shortlisted for the Retrospective Tiptree Award.

Plot (spoilers)

The Two of Them features another strong female protagonist, Irene, who rescues an adolescent girl from a male-dominated quasi-Islamic society. Like many of Russ's short stories ("The Little Dirty Girl"; "Bluestocking"; "The Autobiography of My Mother" in The Adventures of Alyx) The Two of Them concentrates on a mother-daughter-type relationship.
