Heute habe ich auf der Fahrt ins Büro mit einem Roman für mein Frauenprojekt im Monat April begonnen. Es handelt von einem Amerika in gar nicht so ferner Zukunft, wo Frauen unterdrückt werden, keine Bürgerrechte mehr haben dürfen und auch nur 100 Worte täglich zur Verfügung haben. Ich habe erst knapp 50 Seiten gelesen, bisher gefällt es mir sehr gut, aber es ist im Grunde auch ängstigend...
Mein neues Buch:
Christina DALCHER
Vox
Vox
Description: Set in a United States in which half the population has been silenced, Vox is the harrowing, unforgettable story of what one woman will do to protect herself and her daughter.
On the day the government decrees that women are no longer allowed more than one hundred words per day, Dr. Jean McClellan is in denial. This can't happen here. Not in America. Not to her.
This is just the beginning...
Soon women are not permitted to hold jobs. Girls are not taught to read or write. Females no longer have a voice. Before, the average person spoke sixteen thousand words each day, but now women have only one hundred to make themselves heard.
...not the end.
For herself, her daughter, and every woman silenced, Jean will reclaim her voice.
