Stylist   Calla knows how the lottery works. Everyone does. On the day of your first bleed  you
report to the lottery station to learn what kind of woman you will be. A white ticket grants
you children. A blue ticket grants you freedom. You are relieved of the terrible burden of
choice. Or  to put it another way  you have no choice. And once you've taken your ticket  there
is no going back.  But what if the life you're given is the wrong one?   Blue Ticket is a
devastating enquiry into free will and the fraught space of motherhood. Bold and chilling  it
pushes beneath the skin of female identity and patriarchal violence  to the point where human
longing meets our animal bodies.   'Dreamlike  tense  compelling  [with] a pitch-perfect
ending' The New York Times    'Gripping  ethereal  atmospheric' Sunday Times    'Thoughtful and
haunting' Observer    'Terrifying and enchanting in equal measure' LitHub    ' Blue Ticket will
worms its way under your skin and haunt your dreams' Red
