Review
Praise for The Power:
"Electrifying! Shocking! Will knock your socks off! Then you'll think twice, about everything."

Praise for THE POWER:
"Electrifying! Shocking! Will knock your socks off! Then you'll think twice, about everything."
--Margaret Atwood
"The Hunger Games crossed with The Handmaid's Tale."
--Cosmopolitan
"The Power is a subtly funny, lyrical and utterly subversive vision of an impossible future. As all the best visionaries do, Alderman shines a penetrating and yet merciful light on to our present and the so many cruelties in which we may be complicit."--A.L. Kennedy
"Fascinating....as a whole the narrative feels ingenious....deserves to be read by every woman (and, for that matter, every man)."
--The Times UK
"Alderman is a fluent and powerful writer."
--Sunday Times UK
"When we say that The Power is profoundly disturbing and you may well want to argue with it as you read, we mean that in a good way."
--SFX, Five Stars
"What starts out as a fantasy of female empowerment deepens and darkens into an interrogation of power itself, its uses and abuses and what it does to the people who have it."--Guardian UK
