Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara\u2019s older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college, Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University. Only then would she wonder if she\u2019d traveled too far, if there was still a way home.<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>\u201cBeautiful and propulsive . . .
