English Summary/英文概要： The world has changed. War rages in South America and China, and Britain - now entirely dependent on the US for food and energy - is run by an omnipresent dictatorship known simply as The Authority. Assets and weapons have been seized, every movement is monitored and women are compulsorily fitted with contraceptive devices. This is Sister’s story of her attempt to escape the repressive regime. From the confines of her Lancaster prison cell she tells of her such for The Carhullan Army, a quasi-mythical commune of ’unofficial’ women rumoured to be living in a remote part of Cumbria...
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 英聯邦作家獎大獎（Commonwealth Writers Prize），貝蒂.卡拉斯克獎（Betty Trask Award），以及拉克蘭圖書獎（Lakeland Book prize）等多項大獎得主Sarah Hall以其清新脫俗的文筆，強烈有力的筆調，輝煌壯麗的氣勢，向讀者奉獻了一本又一本好書。世界局勢瞬間改變……
戰爭肆虐了整個南美，中國以及英國，他們全都要指望美國供給食物與能源。而美國卻完全被獨裁組織The Authority掌控：資產與武器全部凍結，婦女們被迫植入避孕器具，人民的每一步行動都遭到監視。
本書講述了Sister的逃亡故事。從蘭開斯特監獄逃離出來後，Sister闖入了Carhullan軍隊。那是一個神乎離奇的公社群體，住著一群隱姓埋名的婦女，而傳言中她們應該住在坎布里亞郡一個偏遠的地方。
