Mother of Stones

da Silveira, Avelina

Omschrijving

What if women had a means to protect themselves from violent men and administer punishment? What if there existed a secret feminist organization, Telea, equipped with unlimited resources, dedicated to women's empowerment and protection? This is the tale of Telea and its leader, the Mother of Stones, spanning from its inception during the Mesolithic era to the present, facing challenges, and concluding in a future where society has evolved significantly. This novel blends speculative fiction with elements of fantasy and science fiction, inviting readers to envision a better world for women, men, and children. Avelina da Silveira narrates with an intimate tone, akin to sharing a story with a friend. It begins with the account of a dying woman named N¿kura, who lived 11 thousand years ago. N¿kura discovers a collection of nanobots, resembling a beautiful stone, becoming the first Mother of Stones. From her lineage, future Mothers of Stones are chosen. The protagonist resides in our contemporary era, selected to assume the role of the Mother of Stones, eventually triggering a profound and transformative upheaval in humanity. This narrative lingers in the reader's mind well beyond the final page, courtesy of the ethical dilemmas it presents and the myriad possibilities it encourages readers to contemplate.
