About the book
In a near future, teenage girls around the world awaken a superhuman power: the ability to produce and control electricity. Naomi Alderman turns this speculative premise into a visceral exploration of power, gender, and domination. As women rewrite the social hierarchy, the novel disturbingly questions whether the liberation of one group necessarily builds a fairer society or simply reverses existing oppressions.
With powerful prose, complex narrators, and a bold vision of what it means to restructure power, Alderman offers science fiction that not only entertains but provokes deep thought about gender, violence, and social change.
