Reviews

'A gorgeous novel... A livid and visionary brotherly love story set among our ruins. I loved it.' - Max Porter, author of Shy (praise for Arkady)

'I haven't been able to stop thinking about [Arkady] - such a tender, hopeful tale of brotherhood and belonging, set against vividly imagined urban topographies. I haven't read anything like it in ages.' - Sophie Mackintosh, author of The Water Cure (praise for Arkady)

'Thick with smoky atmosphere and beautifully controlled - this is a vivid and very fine debut.' - Kevin Barry, author of Nightboat to Tangier (praise for Arkady)

'Patrick Langley's Arkady is a strange trip - luminescent, jagged and beautiful. A debut novel that twists, compels, descends and soars. I highly recommend it.' - Jenni Fagan, author of The Panopticon (praise for Arkady)

'The prose crackles with energy as the narrative follows the constant movement by placing the reader on a well-oiled tracking dolly, often zooming out to remind us of the bigger picture. Langley is a highly visual writer and Arkady an assured allegorical debut about a near-future Britain that is potentially only a recession or two away.' - Ben Myers, New Statesman (praise for Arkady)
