Red Clocks
by Leni Zumas
Red clocks by Leni Zumas is set in a world where abortion and IVF are illegal. The story follows story of 5 women, 4 in the present day and one in the mid 1800s.
The new laws have different effects on the 4 women. However, I felt the book could have used more character building. The concept of the imagined world is brilliant and eerie, however, I didn't feel much for any of the characters except the biographer. There's left a lot of scope for the world to be realised. The writing is patchy is what I felt. Lawmakers need to listen more to the people these laws are made for. The right to a women's body is her own and it should remain that way. However, I wish this kind of world doesn't become a reality for any of the people out there.
