One question. What is a woman for?\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In a small Oregon fishing town, five very different women navigate these new barriers alongside age-old questions surrounding motherhood, identity, and freedom. Ro, a single high-school teacher, is trying to have a baby on her own, while also writing a biography of Eivv?r, a little-known 19th-century female polar explorer. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Susan is a frustrated mother of two, trapped in a crumbling marriage. Mattie is the adopted daughter of doting parents and one of Ro's best students, who finds herself pregnant with nowhere to turn. And Gin is the gifted, forest-dwelling herbalist, or \"mender,\" who brings all their fates together when she's arrested and put on trial in a frenzied modern-day witch hunt. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eRed Clocks\u003c\/i\u003e is at once a riveting drama, whose mysteries unfold with magnetic energy, and a shattering novel of ideas. In the vein of Margaret Atwood and Eileen Myles, Leni Zumas fearlessly explores the contours of female experience, evoking \u003ci\u003eThe Handmaid's Tale\u003c\/i\u003e for a new millennium.
