Description

In Naomi Alderman's thought-provoking novel, women suddenly possess a fierce new power. This shift in dynamics drastically alters the world. With a flick of their fingers, they can inflict terrible pain and even death. Alderman's writing is beautiful, and her intelligence seems almost limitless. She also has a pitch-dark sense of humor that she wields perfectly. As a result, this book takes readers on a journey to an alternate reality while exposing our own world in bold and surprising ways. Ambitious and provocative, visceral and page-turning, THE POWER is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in exploring the consequences of a sudden shift in power dynamics.
