BBC's Orphan Black shattered conventions with one actress - Tatiana Maslany - playing a host of main characters. At the same time, it burst through the expectations of a crowd that anticipated male heroes and female victims. This volume provides an analysis of the series.

Orphan Black''s Tatiana Maslany plays a host of the show''s main characters, all clones of an illegal experiment. The mighty heroines save one another and destroy the patriarchy while subverting gender expectations.

The feminist clones are Sarah, who clashes with her radical feminist foster-mother; Alison, the quintessential post-feminist housewife; Cosima, a second-wave feminist lesbian; Beth, a third-wave feminist bogged down by addiction; and M.K., a fourth-wave feminist who tackles the hardships of disability through the Internet. The book explores the women''s war against corporate power and how it relates to the science and ethics surrounding cloning.
