Recenzii

I read We See Everything in my usual places, the buses and tunnels of London. It was compelling and terrifying, bringing the horror of bombardment to the streets I was travelling through (and under). This is a wonderful book - it humanises a battle that so many of us ignore and shook me into fearing about where it is all heading.
Fast-moving and brave, with lots and lots of heart.
I read We See Everything in three sittings and was gripped throughout, held back tears throughout. The ending is both incredibly moving and politically so smart. This is a really clear-eyed, tightly crafted book and I'm so pleased to have read it. And even more pleased that it will soon be out there in the world.
A cracking tale of love, drones and assassinations in north London - gripping and terrifying, a glimpse into our world that lies ahead .
As beautifully written as it is chilling ... gripping and important.
A novel for all ages that is full of heart, hope and humanity. A terrific achievement.
A haunting fable celebrating the healing power of nature
Sutcliffe's fable, inspired by a visit to the West Bank, can't fail to excite and move.
A disturbing and thought-provoking book which simmers with heat, anger and fear
Will draw in young readers preoccupied with society, challenging parents, and their own fears ... An often suspenseful tale.
This is wholly realistic fiction detailing a boy's coming-of-age in a real-life political situation.
Unmissable.
A satire on modern urban life . It is a gritty, compelling eye-opener on the treatment of ADHD.
There is political exposé; there is comedy and one hostage-taker even achieves a kind of tragic-hero status. This might just become a 21st-century YA classic.
Concentr8 by William Sutcliffe feels like a realism, though actually it's a fascinating dystopian satire and a critique of the over-diagnosis of ADHD, the way we treat young people more generally and the power of Big Pharma . A book with a serious mission.
