Description
In a near-future society where the wealthy outsource the burdens of childbirth, "The Farm" plunges readers into the unsettling world of Golden Oaks, a luxurious facility where immigrant women become surrogates for elite clients. The narrative centers on Jane, a Filipina immigrant navigating the complex ethical and emotional landscape of this arrangement, striving to secure a better future for her daughter. Through Jane's journey, the novel explores profound themes of class, race, motherhood, and the commodification of the human body. Joanne Ramos crafts a thought-provoking and timely story that questions the true cost of ambition and the sacrifices made in the pursuit of the American dream.
