About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Calla knows how the lottery works. Everyone does. On the day of your first bleed, you report to the station to learn what kind of woman you will be. A white ticket grants you children. A blue ticket grants you freedom. You are relieved of the terrible burden of choice. And, once you've taken your ticket, there is no going back.

But what if the life you're given is the wrong one?

Blue Ticket is a devastating enquiry into free will and the fraught space of motherhood. Bold and chilling, it pushes beneath the skin of female identity and patriarchal violence, to the point where human longing meets our animal bodies.

I loved this book. It felt like nothing I'd ever read before. Sparse, stunning prose and a familiar but eerily strange world.

Beautifully written & utterly surprising.

i love dystopia reads as well as female-based stories, especially those with a social struggle.
it is not the best, but it is a good read still.
just another type of shorter version of a story between handmaids tale and 1984

as a dystopia book
