Power, Privilege, and Toxic Masculinity in Naomi Alderman’s “The Power” (2016)

Aug 10, 2018Jul 12, 2020 James Alsop

“Something’s happening. The blood is pounding in her ears. A prickling feeling is spreading along her back, over her shoulders, along her collarbone. It’s saying: you can do it. It’s saying: you’re strong.”
