Podcast Guest Episode | The Power on The Banging Book Club

Season 3 of the Banging Book Club podcast opens with a discussion of Naomi Alderman’s novel The Power. The book club is hosted by Leena Norms, Hannah Witton and Lucy Moon, and the season premiere features a guest appearance to talk through Alderman’s novel and its themes of sex and gender. The Power imagines a world in which women develop the ability to generate electrical charges, upending the existing gender order. It won the Baileys Women’s Prize for Fiction in 2017.
