Arvustused

Criminally entertaining. * Guardian * Adjei-Brenyah's acerbic vision lands like a lightning bolt of truth. * Esquire * Grimly funny, epically violent and - at times - surprisingly tender. Quite the ride. * Marie Claire * Magnificent. A radical interrogation of incarceration, racism, entertainment, the whole fabric of American injustice, as well as a pure fire page turner. -- Max Porter, author of SHY A sort of The Hunger Games meets Gladiator meets WWE meets the modern private prison system. * Elle * Like Orwell's 1984 and Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale, Adjei-Brenyah's book presents a dystopian vision so upsetting and illuminating that it should permanently shift our understanding of who we are and what we're capable of doing... Shockingly intimate and moving. * Washington Post * Compelling... The range of different narrators provides a smart 360-degree perspective of the too-familiar society that demands murder for entertainment. * SFX * A brutal, heart-wrenching story that feels so close to reality. * Cosmopolitan * A hugely imaginative read - the world-building is masterful... Unmissable. * Independent * One of the most exciting young writers in America. -- George Saunders, author of LINCOLN IN THE BARDO
