****From the author of the Booker Prize longlisted novel* The Water Cure* comes another mesmerizing, refracted vision of our society: What if the life you’re given is the wrong one?** ** * ** ** Blue Ticket *adds something new to the dystopian tradition set by Orwell’s* 1984 *or Atwood’s* The Handmaid’s Tale. —New York Times Book Review***** 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 marriage and children. A blue ticket grants you a career and 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? When Calla, a blue-ticket woman, begins to question her fate, she must go on the run. Pregnant and desperate, Calla must contend with whether or not the lottery knows her better than she knows herself—and what that might mean for her child. With *Blue Ticket* , Sophie Mackintosh has created another mesmerizing, refracted vision of our world that explores the impossible decisions women have to make when society restricts their choices.
