The Power - Naomi Alderman

Descriere The Power - Naomi Alderman

\nIn this stunning bestseller praised as our era's Handmaid's Tale, a fierce new power has emerged--and only women have it (Washington Post). \nIn The Power, the world is a recognizable place: there's a rich Nigerian boy who lounges around the family pool; a foster kid whose religious parents hide their true nature; an ambitious American politician; a tough London girl from a tricky family. \n \nBut then a vital new force takes root and flourishes, causing their lives to converge with devastating effect. Teenage girls now have immense physical power: they can cause agonizing pain and even death. And, with this small twist of nature, the world drastically resets. From award-winning author Naomi Alderman, The Power is speculative fiction at its most ambitious and provocative, at once taking us on a thrilling journey to an alternate reality, and exposing our own world in bold and surprising ways. \n \nCaptivating, fierce, and unsettling...I was riveted by every page. Alderman's prose is immersive and, well, electric. --New York Times Book Review\n
