Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and reviews from our contributors. I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman is set in a dystopian universe where 39 women are imprisoned in a bunker. In this world, intimacy is forbidden, and books and relationships are non-existent.
What We Say: “A profound commentary on gender and identity as a young woman manages to escape confinement and embarks on a journey of self-discovery. Evocative and thrilling, it’s a dystopian modern classic” – Stella Fabinyi
What They Say: “A vivid evocation of another world, alive with hope and dignity in the midst of cruelty and alienation... A haunting testimony from an abandoned planet” – Megan Hunter
Available on Bookshop.org, Waterstones, Barnes & Noble and Amazon
