**SHORTLISTED FOR THE BOOKER PRIZE 2022**

'Allegory, satire and fairy-tale rolled into one mighty punch' Guardian

An energy burst, an exhilarating joyride, and an animal nation trapped in a cycle as old as time.

Narrated by a vivid chorus of animal voices that unveil the tyranny and ruthlessness required to uphold absolute power, Glory is the tale of an uprising and a country's implosion. And at the centre of it all, a young goat named Destiny, returning home to bear witness to a revolution.

Urgent, wild, dazzling with life and an irrepressible wit, Noviolet Bulawayo's Glory is a razor-sharp satire that unpicks power and shows how history can be halted in a moment.

'Bulawayo is really out-Orwelling Orwell. This is a satire with sharper teeth, angrier, and also very, very funny' New York Times Book Review
