Description: "In the beginning, many, many years ago, there were two tribes. Dom was a boy from the hunting tribe, and Va was a girl from the farming tribe. The two tribes fought, but that couldn't stop Dom and Va from falling in love. In the midst of battle, Dom escapes and takes Va with him. Together, they journey across the stark landscape of eons ago, learning about the harsh and aggressive world around them even as they learn more about the creative and peaceful feelings within themselves. In this volume, compromising the novel originally titled Dom and Va and the short story adaptation "In the Beginning," John Christopher offers a beginning that represents the conflicting sides of human nature, and the dark and light in all of us."--Page [4] cover.
