Benvenuto Cellini by Mario Scalini

A young woman is kept in a cage underground with thirty-nine other females, guarded by armed men who never speak; her crimes unremembered.if indeed there were crimes.

The youngest of forty--a child with no name and no past--she survives for some purpose long forgotten in a world ravaged and wasted. In this reality where intimacy is forbidden--in the unrelenting sameness of the artificial days and nights--she knows nothing of books and time, of needs and feelings.

Then everything changes.and nothing changes.

A young woman who has never known men--a child who knows of no history before the bars and restraints--must now reinvent herself, piece by piece, in a place she has never been.and in the face of the most challenging and terrifying of unknowns: freedom.
