The Bees: A Novel by Laline Paull (Paperback)

The Bees is the acclaimed debut novel by Laline Paull, set inside an orchard hive with a rigid caste system where only the queen may breed. Flora 717 is born a lowly sanitation worker, yet her curiosity, courage and strength set her apart and lead her into the nursery and out into the fields as a forager. Compared to The Handmaid's Tale and The Hunger Games, it is an inventive paperback from Ecco.
