Here's page 4 of Lavinia by Ursula Le Guin (Italics are mine):
She [Spartan Helen] caused hers by letting men who wanted her take her. I caused mine because I wouldn't be given, wouldn't be taken, but chose my man and my fate.
I've got this book on hold at the library, but worried that I wouldn't be able to get into it. This sounds awesome, though. Great teaser - I'm excited!
