Red Clocks

Descriere Red Clocks

SHORTLISTED FOR THE INAUGURAL ORWELL PRIZE FOR POLITICAL FICTION \n \n \n \n \n `Intense, beautifully crafted . . . Her talent is electric. Get ready for a shock' Guardian \n \n \n \n \n This is a work of fiction. Keep telling yourself that. \n \n \n \n America has changed. For women, it has changed for the worse. \n \n \n Ro, a single high-school teacher, is desperate to become a mother. But with IVF now illegal - along with abortion and other reproductive rights - parenthood looks increasingly unlikely for her. Her best friend Susan is trapped in a failing marriage with two children, her star student Mattie is unwillingly pregnant and Gin, an outcast offering other women natural remedies, has become the centre of a modern-day witch-hunt. \n \n \n With warmth, wit and ferocious inventiveness, Red Clocks shows us an all-too plausible near-future: like The Handmaid's Tale, it is a call to arms, set to become a modern classic. \n
