The Power by Naomi Alderman
Imagine a world where women have all the power and men learn to become afraid of them; that is the premise of The Power by Naomi Alderman. In The Power, females are discovered to have the latent ability to conduct electricity and release it through their fingers. This power suddenly becomes activated in teenage girls, who can then awaken the power in older women. Women start weaponizing the power against men, and it flips the gender narrative in favour of women. But would the world be a better place if women were in control? The Power is an interesting and thought-provoking novel that posits an answer to that question that I think misandrists are going to hate.
