THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER WINNER OF THE WATERSTONES DEBUT FICTION PRIZE 2024 WINNER OF THE BOLLINGER EVERYMAN WODEHOUSE PRIZE FOR COMIC FICTION 2024 SHORTLISTED FOR THE NERO AWARD FOR DEBUT FICTION 2024 LONGLISTED FOR THE AUTHORS' CLUB BEST FIRST NOVEL AWARD 2025 A BBC RADIO 4 BOOK AT BEDTIME A BBC2 BETWEEN THE COVERS PICK PICKED AS A BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE GUARDIAN, THE INDEPENDENT, THE IRISH TIMES, THE FINANCIAL TIMES AND THE TLS One of the most original and brilliant debuts in years Irish Times Bold and totally unexpected . I was hooked from the first page Douglas Stuart, author of Shuggie Bain Brilliant . Hilarious, moving, and profound R. F. Kuang, author of Yellowface *** Ancient Sicily. Enter GELON: visionary, dreamer, theatre lover. Enter LAMPO: feckless, jobless, in need of a distraction. Imprisoned in the quarries of Syracuse, thousands of defeated Athenians hang on by the thinnest of threads. Theyre fading in the baking heat, but not everything is lost: they can still recite lines from Greek tragedy when tempted by Lampo and Gelon with goatskins of wine and scraps of food. And so an idea is born. Because, after all, you can hate the invaders but still love their poetry. Its audacious. It might even be dangerous. But like all the best things in life love, friendship, art itself it will reveal the very worst, and the very best, of what humans are capable of. What could possibly go wrong? *** Fierce, funny, fast-paced Brings the ancient world roaring to life Joanna Quinn, author of The Whalebone Theatre Love, war, poetry, reckless ambition, terrible failure, and glorious triumph A delicious treat of a read. I loved it Jon McGregor, author of Lean Fall Stand Sunday Times bestseller, August 2024. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
