August's Alibi Feminist Book Club meeting will be Tuesday, August 5th at 6:30, to discuss Naomi Alderman's ("captivating," "riveting," "fierce," "electric," "stupendous," "bold," "exciting," "ingenious," "thrilling") "The Power," hosted by Chelsea and Caroline!
All over the world women and girls are discovering they have the power. With a flick of the fingers they can inflict terrible pain, and even death. And with this small twist of nature, everything changes drastically. Ambitious and provocative, visceral and page-turning, award-winning author Naomi Alderman's THE POWER at once takes us on a journey to an alternate reality and exposes our own world in bold and surprising ways.
"Alderman has written our era's Handmaid's Tale, and, like Margaret Atwood's classic, The Power is one of those essential feminist works that terrifies and illuminates, enrages and encourages....This book sparks with such electric satire that you should read it wearing insulated gloves."-- Ron Charles, Washington Post
"Electrifying! Shocking! Will knock your socks off! Then you'll think twice, about everything."-- Margaret Atwood
Books available in the shop, print and ebooks at bookshop.org/shop/alibibookshop and audio: libro.fm/alibibookshop
This is going to be a fantastic discussion -- see you there!
