Beschreibung

In the year of our Lord 1894, I became an outlaw.<br> <br> On the day of her wedding-dance, Ada feels lucky. She loves her broad-shouldered, bashful husband and her job as an apprentice midwife.<br> <br> But her luck will not last. It is every woman's duty to have a child, to replace those that were lost in the Great Flu. And after a year of marriage and no pregnancy, in a town where barren women are hanged as witches, Ada's survival depends on leaving behind everything she knows.<br> <br> She joins up with the notorious Hole in the Wall Gang. Its leader, a charismatic preacher-turned-robber, known to all as The Kid, wants to create a safe haven for women outcast from society. But to make this dream a reality, the Gang hatches a treacherous plan. And Ada must decide whether she's willing to risk her life for the possibility of a new kind of future for them all.<br> <br>'North is a riveting storyteller . . . Reader, you are in for a real treat' JENNY ZHANG<br><br> 'Fans of Margaret Atwood and Cormac McCarthy finally get the Western they deserve' ALEXIS COE<br> <br> 'North's knockout latest chronicles the travails of a midwife's daughter who joins a group of female and nonbinary outlaws near the end of the 19th century . . . Impossible to put down' PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY<br> <br> 'Calling it The Handmaid's Tale crossed with Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid goes some way to describe this novel's memorable world, but it is also wholly its own' KIRKUS<br> <br> 'A grand, unforgettable tale' ESMÉ WEIJUN WANG
