The Two of Them (novel)The Two of Them is a feminist science fiction novel by Joanna Russ. It was first published in 1978 in the United States by Berkley Books and in Great Britain by The Women's Press in 1986. It was last reissued in 2005 by the Wesleyan University Press with a foreword by Sarah LeFanu.

Plot
Irene, a female galactic agent, rescues a young woman, Zubeydeh, from a male-dominant culture of a colonized planet, Ala-ed-deen, where women are kept in purdah.

...shivers generically between telling the realistic story of oppression -and escape- of a young woman brought up on a planet whose religion is remniscent of Islam, and deconstructing this generic material into the embittered dreams of a woman trapped on Earth
