One of the New York Times Ten Best Books of the Year. In
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.
But 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.
Characters: 99. Amazon rating: 4 stars. Genre: Fiction.
