A chilling feminist novel set in a near-future dystopia, Anna
explores the conflicts between selfhood and expectations, safety and
control, and the sacrifices we make for the sake of protection.
Beaten. Branded. Defiant.
Anna is a possession. She is owned by the man named Will, shielded from
the world of struggles by his care. He loves her, protects her, and then
breaks her. Anna is obedient, dutiful, and compliant. Anna does not know
her place in the world.
When she falls pregnant, Anna leaves her name behind, and finds the
strength to run. But the past - and Will - catch up with her in an
idyllic town with a dark secret, and this time, it's not just Anna who
is at risk.
