![]() ![]() Well here is the synopsis and my thoughts.Ī triumphant, genre-bending novel, following a young woman through a nightmarish yet recognisable landscape as she attempts to create a new life for herself and her children. So, what is this book all about I hear you cry. I found out about Sorrowland last year, when Merky Books began tweeting about the books they would be publishing in 2021, I took a screen shot and scuttled off to Google immediately, it featured on my Ones to Watch in 2021 I knew I would love this book. Sorrowland exceeded all my expectations, what Rivers Solomon has created with their third novel is simply sublime, they are a pen wielding genius and I am really excited that I have two books on their backlist to explore further. ![]() I have sat on this review for months namely because I have continuously thought “how the hell am I going to put into words how good this book is.” ![]() This review has been a long time coming, I read Sorrowland back in May and as soon as I had finished I tweeted that it was my book of the year a bold claim with 8 months left to go – It still stands by the way. ![]()
