Women's Talk

About This Novel

Nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture and the Best Adapted Screenplay Award for the original film and television work of the same name! Margaret Atwood said: "It's simply a real-life version of "The Handmaid's Tale"!" Phenomenal novel in Europe and America! It has been translated into 20 languages ​​and has a 6W+ rating on European and American Douban! As long as women don't speak up, the devil will stay here forever. In a culture rife with violence, how can women create a better world for themselves and their loved ones? Between 2005 and 2009, in a remote, closed region of Bolivia, hundreds of women and girls woke up early in the morning to find their clothes torn, bruises, blood and semen on their bodies, but with no memory of what had happened. The rapes they suffered were blamed on ghosts and Satan. Victims speaking out were dismissed as "loose female fantasies". "Women's Talk" is based on the above-mentioned real events and revolves around a secret meeting of eight women. In order to protect themselves and their daughters from further harm, the women must make a fateful choice within forty-eight hours: should they stay in the only place they know, or flee to the unknown outside world? The evil revealed in this novel is simply beyond words. --Lon Charles (Chief Book Critic, The Washington Post)
