What happens when the formally oppressed become the oppressors?

This is a work of fiction and is set in Australia, but if you look at what is going on in the USA right now, you will see that it really isn't truly a fictional book.

This book and the author's thoughts on equality for all are ambitious in their scope. I liked the ideas of what it takes for women and other minorities to regain (or gain) their 'selves', to be treated as equals.

This book looks at two different women and how they plan on making these changes. As you know from the synopsis, this book is set slightly in the future after Covid 19 in a world where the men have the rights and privileges they had back in the late 1800s. Women are now poised to take back what they have lost and then some. This book shows two different ways of going about this. Neither way is perfect since no matter what, the formally oppressed will become the oppressors.

This was an interesting read that might make some people a tad uncomfortable or jubilant. It depends on how you see things.
