The Water Cure by Sophie Mackintosh
In Sophie Mackintosh’s debut dystopian fiction, The Water Cure (Doubleday), love is rationed like water–and in scarce supply. Dubbed “a gripping, sinister fable” by dystopian queen Margaret Atwood, I had high expectations coming into this novel. Mackintosh did not disappoint. Three sisters live on an island with their mother and father, who they call “King,” far from the rest of civilization. They routinely undergo tests of drastic physical and emotional strain to cleanse their bodies and safeguard them from the toxicity of the rest of the world and the dangerous men it is teeming with.Buy this Book!
