In the 990s, Southern England is constantly beset by Danish invaders, who plunder and destroy their ways across the Kingdom of Wessex.

In the 1990s, international relations continue to be a hot topic in the US, where the Clinton administration has just passed NAFTA.

And in the midst of these disparate political landscapes are Gænburh & Æscwyn and Jennifer & Amanda: two pairs of teenage sisters living in Medieval Winchester, England, and 20th-century Winchester, Virginia. As all of them are learning, the world is full of peril for young women--whether facing the physical threats of the wild animals in the forest or the emotional threats of public high school. How do individual lives get shaped by broader political and national events, and what can lives separated by an ocean and a millennium possibly have in common? WINCHESTER/WINCHESTER is a darkly comic and poignant exploration of the relationships between two pairs of sisters, living in sister cities a thousand years apart.
