The Power by Naomi Alderman


What if everything we thought was true about how the world was run was not the truth? What would the world be like if women were the dominant sex? Would men be fighting for equality? How different would everything be? Thrilling to the very last sentence, Naomi Alderman brings us into the near future, building an alternate yet believable scenario, and showing us that power, without management, in anyone’s hands—in this case, teenage girls—is always corruptible.
