With the popularity of THE HANDMAID’S TALE, people are already talking about the debut dystopian book by Christina Dalcher called VOX. Read this book jacket copy….it sounds amazing!
Set in an America where 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 100 words daily, Dr. Jean McClellan is in denial–this can’t happen here. Not in America. Not to her.
This is just the beginning.
Soon women can no longer hold jobs. Girls are no longer taught to read or write. Females no longer have a voice. Before, the average person spoke sixteen thousand words a day, but now women only have one hundred to make themselves heard.
But this is not the end.
For herself, her daughter, and every woman silenced, Jean will reclaim her voice.
This is already being called a great book club choice, so make sure to get your name on the list as soon as you see it at your library, or pre-order a copy now. It’s probably going to fly off the shelves at the end of the summer.
