Notă biografică
Hannah Capin has wanted to be a writer for as long as she can remember. She finished her first "novel" when she was eleven, about a girl detective and a brilliant villain looking for revenge. Thousands of pages later, she's still writing about smart girls and vengeance. When she's not working on her next manuscript, you can find her sailing, singing, or pulling marathon gossip sessions with her girl squad. Hannah hold degrees from Columbia University and the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music - the latter is in saxophone performance, and she has zero regrets. Hannah's debut novel The Dead Queens Club was released in January 2019, and Foul Is Fair will be released in January 2020.
Recenzii
Fierce,
ruthless
and
unputdownable
A tale of power and retribution - Macbeth for Gen Z
Post-#MeToo, novels aimed at teenage girls frequently revolve around topics of consent, slut-shaming and revenge porn. The haste to be timely can mean half-cooked ingredients, something Hannah Capin'sFoul Is Faircould never be accused of: rather Capin turns the heat up high to roast setting...wicked fun!
Capin's twisty, blood-soaked take on Shakespeare's play is a propulsive, white-hot juggernaut of vengeance that packs a viscerally satisfying punch.
This isn't a how-to-murder-your-classmates manual; it's a ferocious, frenzied reaction to a world that has, for too long, treated women as collateral damage in stories that have been deemed more important than theirs ... Jade's first-person narrative, steeped in rage and drenched, unapologetically, with gore, moves at a relentless pace.
This book is not to be missed.
Rhythmic, propulsive prose drives this bloody retelling of Macbeth at a relentless pace all the way to its violent end...impossible to put down.
[A] dark, brutal revenge fantasy, sharply feminist and brimming with melodic prose. Capin's sophomore novel is bloody brilliant - exceedingly bloody, and every bit as brilliant
Capin's writing will seduce you with its beauty and then, when you least suspect it, slice you to the bone - just likeFoul is Fair's captivating, vicious, entirely unforgettable heroine, Jade
Fierce, vicious, and electric. If books had teeth,Foul Is Fairwould have fangs. Capin's language glittersdark and her writing cuts deep. Revenge is a dish best served by this deliciously unapologetic coven
Vicious and beautifully brutal,Foul is Fairgives a sword to every girl who has ever been a victim and makes them a warrior. This book is pulls no punches . . . An unapologetic feminist battle-cry that leaves you breathless and thirsting for vengeance
Foul is Fairdelivers the story of a girl who snatches control back from a world that stole it away, through whatever means necessary. Hannah Capin deftly combines stunningly lyrical prose with the raw power of engulfing fury, sending a message written in blood. In a world where too many are forced into silence, this book roars back
Jade does what uncounted sexual assault survivors have dreamed of doing - she takes matters into her own hands. What ensues is part [...] revenge fantasy, part diabolically well-planned manipulation, and it's all done in lyrical prose that feels dreamy andso muchlike Shakespeare. A gorgeous, scorchingly emotional novel
This revenge fantasy told from the point of view of a rape survivor will shock and awe.
