"Landman brings her own voice to this classic: it never intrudes but instead selects and interprets . An excellent introduction to a novel firmly rooted in the canon of literary greats. More, please!" - Books for Keeps "Riveting, readable re-telling . Tanya Landman's storytelling skills shine bright" - LoveReading4Kids "It's a broiling, uncomfortable, morally ambiguous story and making it accessible to younger readers without comprimising its heart is a tremendous task and one that has been done with real brio" - The Letterpress Project "This is a deeply respectful and intuitive retelling" - Bookwagon "Not just the perfect gateway drug to what I think is the greatest English novel, but a brilliant book in its own right" - Anthony McGowan.
