Media Reviews
A dazzling work of speculative fiction * Observer *
'Almost supernaturally propulsive, sometimes very beautiful... there are strange things here I am unlikely to forget. Sandra Newman is a genius' * Sarah Perry, author of Melmouth *
Superb. A novel of hypnotic power and breadth from one of the most supple, dynamic voices around. Newman's talents never fail to impress me * Irenosen Okojie, author of Butterfly Fish *
Explosive... Dazzling and lyrical... Truly spectacular * Literary Review *
A gripping, haunting novel that miraculously swerves both cheap misandry and the lazy pieties of contemporary rectitude * Spectator *
Propulsive * i Paper *
The Men really intrigues and disturbs... * Guardian *
Compelling and enjoyable * Telegraph *
Sandra Newman's fiction is characterised by audacious conceits, utopian thinking and apocalyptic fantasies * Observer *
Newman hooks you in with her intriguing premise, asking unnerving questions about our present, and future * Stylist, Book List *
A tale of white guilt, climate inaction and the gravitational pull of grief; of what - or who - we are willing to sacrifice to stay comfortable * TLS *
Heart-breaking. The Men imagines a better world and what we might have to sacrifice to get there, and, at the same time, it's a brilliantly constructed sci-fi thriller, with a premise that hooks you in with a horrifying grip. I loved it * Bridget Collins *
