panOf course you can slap the label "feminist dystopia" on a book to sell it, it doesn't make the book a feminist dystopia though. In fact I'm wondering what it is about this book that is supposed to be feminist, or whether it has any merit beyond the actual story it tells. #indiebuddyreads #dogsoflitsy #dogs #manbooker2018 #finestfiction #indiebuddyreads #mbp2018

mklong It‘s a funny old world now when calling it “feminist dystopia” actually helps you sell a book! And Elvis is so cute! He and my Sandy look like they could be cousins. 6y

Redwritinghood Oh no - is it worse than Snap? 6y
MeikeReads @Redwritinghood Oh, that's a difficult question! As a Booker pick, I'd say it's not, but Snap was clearly written as pure entertainment, while Mackintosh seems to be serious about this - so from this angle, The Water Cure is worse! :-) 6y
