The Power: Now a Major TV Series with Prime Video
All over the world women are discovering they have the power.
With a flick of the fingers they can inflict terrible pain - even death.
Suddenly, every man on the planet finds they've lost control.
The Day of the Girls has arrived - but where will it end?

With this single twist, the four lives at the heart of Naomi Alderman's shocking and visceral novel are utterly transformed, and we look at the world in an entirely new light. What if the power to hurt were in women's hands?

The iconic bestseller, winner of the Women's Prize, and soon-to-be-TV series, The Power is a truly extraordinary modern classic.

Our pre-loved books may carry signs of age – a folded corner here, a cracked spine there – reminders of the readers who loved them before you. Covers and editions may vary from those pictured, as some are older printings. Buying secondhand keeps stories circulating and the planet happier.
Returns Policy
Because each of our books has a story of its own, a little wear is to be expected. However, if a book arrives in a condition that limits your ability to read it – for instance, with missing pages, severe water damage, or a completely broken binding – please contact us within 7 days of delivery for a replacement or refund. We’re unable to accept returns for the usual signs of age such as cracked spines, yellowing pages, library notes, or cover variations, as these quirks are part of a book’s well-loved history.
