Very interesting speculative fiction about a world in which a matriarchal society is equivalent to our patriarchal society of today. Reminded me a lot of the framing narrative in The Power by Naomi Alderman.

It was an enjoyable read I guess. Not particularly imaginative, just men playing the traditional roles of women in a pretty cliche story.
I did laugh a little about Eze's club outfit and I think I would enjoy living in that world.
