ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The Power" by Naomi Alderman presents a world where women suddenly develop a physical ability to generate and discharge electricity. This newfound power rapidly upends the global power balance, challenging long-established patriarchal structures and societal norms. The narrative follows several key characters, including Roxy, a young woman discovering her capabilities amidst gang violence; Allie, a troubled teenager who evolves into a messianic figure known as Mother Eve; Margot, a politician navigating the seismic shifts in governance; and Tunde, a male journalist struggling to document and understand this profound transformation. The book explores the complex and often unsettling consequences of this power shift, delving into themes of oppression, liberation, and the cyclical nature of dominance in a world undergoing radical change.
