Richard Lloyd Parry's gripping fiction debut is a parable and a cracking good yarn, an intelligent adventure told with the precise and horrified eye of a news correspondent. Immersive and immensely readable, never not terrifying
Richard Beard, author of Sad Little Men
In the Green Heart is a brilliant, harrowing and heartbreaking, yet utterly compelling and profoundly moral novel which speaks to us all in our age of conflicts and wars, and which stands shoulder to shoulder with Waiting for the Barbarians and The Constant Gardener, and confirms Richard Lloyd Parry as one of the great writers of our times
David Peace
Richard Lloyd Parry has been one of the most exciting non-fiction writers of the past decade or so. Now he’s taken his incredible skills to fiction and it’s explosive - utterly compelling, disturbing, and thrilling. If Graham Greene reincarnated like Dr Who, this is what he would have written.
