Description: PRIASE FOR GLORY "Few writers possess a literary voice as inimitable as Bulawayo's...[The] dazzling voices of this novel will draw you deep into its ambitious and mystifying heart." -- Vulture "[One of the] most anticipated books of 2022." -- Oprah Daily "Throughout, Bulawayo keenly displays the perspectives of political players and the civilians who bear the brunt of their violence. With satire that feels necessary and urgent, Bulawayo brings clarity to a murky political morass." --Publishers Weekly "Conjure[s] a mood of an epic folktale." --Kirkus Reviews "Glory is like nothing we've read before. It's a strange, creative, experimental book that will take the reading world by storm, a satire grounded in hope." --Book Riot "Inspired by the fall of Robert Mugabe, [Glory] promises an incisive parable for our times." -- Tom Beer , Kirkus Reviews PRAISE FOR NOVIOLET BULAWAYO "A deeply felt and fiercely written debut novel . . . The voice Ms. Bulawayo has fashioned for [Darling] is utterly distinctive - by turns unsparing and lyrical, unsentimental and poetic, spiky and meditative." -- Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "A gifted writer." --New York Times Book Review "NoViolet Bulawayo does not shrink away from anything... [She] writes with poignant clarity and hard-hitting imagery." --New York Daily News "The Booker Prize-shortlisted author of We Need New Names returns with a novel inspired by the fall of Zimbabwean president Robert Mugabe in 2017. Described as an 'anthropomorphic allegory' in the tradition of Animal Farm, Bulawayo's tale of dictatorship and oppression explores the exaltation and downfall of a would-be savior." --Oprah Daily "[Bulawayo's] prose is warm and clear and unfussy...Her hard, funny first novel is a triumph." --Entertainment Weekly "Her gift as a visual storyteller should propel her to a bright future." --USA Today "Bulawayo's meditations on displacement and belonging have already garnered widespread critical praise and comparisons to the likes of Zadie Smith and J. M. Coetzee... Bulawayo mixes imagination and reality, combining an intuitive attention to detail with startling, visceral imagery... This book is a provocative, haunting debut from an author to watch." --Elle
