Notă biografică

Julianna is an award-winning poet, novelist, and young adult writer. For years, she has been thinking about writing a futuristic dystopian novel about a society of haves - the Pure, who escaped the apocalypse and live in an uncontaminated dome-covered city - and have-nots - the wretched survivors who live in the nearly-destroyed outside world.

Recenzii

"Beyond inventive"
Xpresso Reads
"Baggott's highly anticipated postapocalyptic horror novel...is a fascinating mix of stark, oppressive authoritarianism and grotesque anarchy...Baggott mixes brutality, occasional wry humor, and strong dialogue into an exemplar of the subgenre."—Publisher's Weekly(STARRED review) onPure
"Us 99 percenters will live outside the gates come the future, and it won't be pretty-especially once the nukes start popping... It's a bonus that the hero of the piece is a young girl, which ought to serve as inspiration for more than a few readers. Whether Baggott's imagined world is one that you'd want to live in is another matter entirely, of course. Damned Detonations!"—KirkusonPure
"A great gorgeous whirlwind of a novel, boundless in its imagination. You will be swept away."—Justin Cronin,New York Timesbestselling author ofThe PassageonPure
"A boiling and roiling glorious mosh-pit of a book, full of wonderful weirdness, tenderness, and wild suspense. If Katniss could jump out of her own book and pick a great friend, I think she'd find an excellent candidate in Pressia."—Aimee Bender,New York Timesbestselling author ofThe Particular Sadness of Lemon CakeonPure

"From the first page on, there are no brakes on this book. It's nearly impossible to stop reading as Baggott delves fearlessly into a grotesque and fascinating future populated by strangely endearing victims (and perpetrators) of a wholly unique apocalypse. And trust me,Purepacks one hell of an apocalypse."—Daniel H. Wilson,New York Timesbestselling author ofRobopocalypse

"Pureis a dark adventure that is both startling and addictive at once. Pressia Belze is one part manga heroine and one part post-apocalyptic Alice, stranded in a surreal Wonderland where everyone and everything resonates with what has been lost. Breathtaking and frightening. I couldn't stop readingPure."—Danielle Trussoni, bestselling author ofAngelology
"Original and masterfully written,Purefeatures great characters and a story that is, from page to page, startling, harrowing, and touching. I recommend it wholeheartedly."—Jeff VanderMeer, World Fantasy Award winner and bestselling author ofCity of Saints and Madmen
"This new novel of Julianna Baggott's is so bizarre and wonderful and transportingly self-contained and yet so resonantly rich that I truly forgot where I was or who I was. . . . I was profoundly enchanted. . . .Pureis not just the most extraordinary coming-of-age novel I've ever read, it is also a beautiful and savage metaphorical assessment of how all of us live in this present age. This is an important book, for adults young and old, by one of our finest writers."—Robert Olen Butler, Pulitzer Prize winner and author ofA Good Scent From a Strange Mountain
"Pureis a post-apocalyptic thrill ride, filled with wildly inventive characters whose journey of struggle and revolution manifests as a fast-paced narrative full of promise and hope. As visceral and kinetic as it is socially relevant,Pureis bursting with imagination and epic adventure. Baggott is here to stay. And we are all the beneficiaries."—Steven Schneider, producer of Paranormal Activity I and II
"Julianna Baggott'sPureis testament to the might and beauty of Grimm-dark imagination. The devils of the human psyche will not be quelled, and this book, like the best of Poe, intrepidly confronts what our bad clan is capable of, the fragility of all human feeling, and the possibility that hope can redeem the wastelands we've made. A sublime novel by one of our most important storytellers."—William Giraldi, author ofBusy Monsters
"Julianna Baggott has created a mesmerizing, nightmarish apocalyptic world, populated by denizens who suffer out bleak existence bearing the literal marks of what was closest to them in their previous life. The story that emerges from the ashes shines like a jewel on a dark horizon, and this tale about family, the power of faith, and the search for love is sure to haunt the imagination of readers for a long, long time."—Matt Bondurant, author ofThe Wettest County in the WorldonPure
