The Power by Naomi Alderman is a novel that pulls you in and doesn’t let go. I was entirely engrossed in her construction of societal collapse and her exploration of power in society. This book opens up an important conversation about the importance we place on power and the role of women in our current society. This book is empowering, feminist, and reflective.
