Sobre este título

From the Hugo award-winning author Naomi Kritzer comes a tense portrait of a future we desperately hope to escape.

O Lord, deliver us.

Doctor Liz has just been acquitted for performing the last abortion in North Dakota when she's kidnapped.

They're not just any kidnappers, but a fundamentalist cult, deep in the rural west, without respect for law or decency, and in desperate need of an OB/GYN.

Guarded, isolated, without access to the outside world, Liz nevertheless is treated with respect as the only doctor on the compound, but she is very aware of what happened to the last obstetrician they kidnapped.

She must escape, and bring help to the girls trapped at the compound, if it's the last thing she does.

Resumo da Crítica

<p>Prasie for Obstetrix:<br><br>"By turns grounded and scathing, <i>Obstetrix</i> is the thriller we all deserve to get us through these years. Kritzer's keen eye for character detail is out in full force here."--Marissa Lingen<br><br>"Absolutely riveting novella set in a very near future, about a doctor who is kidnapped to deliver babies for a cult. Invites comparison to <i>The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet</i>...I couldn’t put it down. Kritzer is very good at tense situations and the ways people have to get on with life when things are challenging, and she’s absolutely on the top of her form here."--Jo Walton<br><br>"An intense, day-after-tomorrow thriller – if thrillers cared more about high-risk pregnancy and childbirth than fight scenes, which they really should. Liz is warm and deeply moral, and determined to hold onto both of those things while defending her patients’ bodily autonomy along with her own. <i>Obstetrix </i>is worth losing sleep over, and you should absolutely plan to do so."--Ruthanna Emrys<br><br>Praise for Naomi Kritzer:<br><br>"The political critique is sharp and the mystery is gripping." -- <i>Publishers Weekly </i>on<i> Liberty's Daughter</i><br><br>"Terrific" -- Jo Walton on <i>Chaos on Catnet</i><br><br>“A pure delight...that’s as tender and funny as it is gripping and fast-paced. This book is perfect.”— <i>The New York Times Book Review</i> on <i>Catfishing on CatNet</i><br><br>"First-rate.” — <i>Locus Magazine</i> on <i>Catfishing on CatNet</i><br><br>“Bold and absurd and a whole lot of fun." — <i>NPR</i> on <i>Catfishing on CatNet</i><br><br>“An absolutely charming and incredibly gripping, superbly plotted YA thriller.” — Cory Doctorow, <i>NYT </i>bestselling author of <i>Little Brother</i>, on <i>Catfishing on CatNet</i><br><br>“Wickedly funny and thrilling in turns.” — <i>Kirkus</i>, <b>starred review</b>, on <i>Catfishing on CatNet</i><br><br>“Kritzer’s take on a benevolent AI is both whimsical and poignant. An entertaining, heart-filled exploration of today’s online existence and privacy concerns.” — <i>Publishers Weekly</i>, <b>starred review,</b> on <i>Catfishing on CatNet</i></p>
