"I can’t remember the last time I saw a movie where the gender roles were so brazenly switched. The male characters were superfluous and fleeting; the female characters were complex, brilliant, and complete degenerates. I loved every second of it."

Book Rating

an incredibly interesting concept with a fast paced plot (3 more)

very interesting structure of the book as a book within a book, etc.

a thought provoking commentary on gender, religion, power, war and the future of these things, even with hints towards the dangerous future of chemical/atomic/nuclear weaponry

i am sure that this will be made into a movie (it really is of grand proportions) and i can only hope they do it justice

truly disturbing at times (0 more)

THANK YOU FOR THIS NOVEL NAOMI ALDERMAN

i cannot encourage anyone to read this book enough. what a concept for a novel!! especially biting from the perspective of a female reader, it reads as a disturbing and compelling gender political satire that sometimes hits a little too close to home. i implore you to read it and reconsider the gender political landscape of our modern society
