このコンテンツについて
** A BBC RADIO 2 BOOK CLUB PICK **
‘Lord of the Flies meets Love Island – dark, thrilling, and delightfully twisted’ LOUISE O'NEILL
'So gripping and propulsive that it beats reality TV at its own game. Why watch TV when Aisling Rawle does it better?' TORREY PETERS
'THIS is the book to read this summer… 10 out of 10' CECELIA AHERN
–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
You wake up in a compound in the middle of the desert, along with nine other women.
All of you are young, all beautiful, all keen to escape the grinding poverty, political unrest and environmental catastrophe of the outside world.
You realise that cameras are tracking your every move, broadcasting to millions of reality TV fans.
Soon, ten men will arrive on foot – if they all survive the journey.
What will you have to do to win?
And what happens to the losers?
The Compound is an addictive literary satire on modern excess: it holds a twisted mirror up to our obsession with winning, losing and, above all, watching.

'Written with total verve and delight… definitely a name to watch' STYLIST
'An Animal Farm for our age of relentless materialism' NEW YORK TIMES
'As addictive as the shows it satirises, and so relentlessly gripping that its cleverness sneaks up on you… You'll be petitioning Rawle for another season' ABIGAIL DEAN
'Sinister in all the best ways’ ELLE
'Twisty, satirical… delivers on its binge-worthy premise with romance and betrayal' MAIL ON SUNDAY
‘Smart and provocative… thrilling and haunting’ NEW YORK TIMES Book Review
'A brilliant debut, with some unexpected twists, a simmering uneasiness and an ending I've thought about since I finished reading it’ DAILY MIRROR
'Innovative, captivating, and impossible to put down' LEILA MOTTLEY
'A fresh, original debut, searing in its interrogation of modern life, utterly engrossing, everyone should read it. I loved it' ANDREA MARA
'Riveting and deeply unsettling… Aisling Rawle has written a book for our times: I flew through it and kept thinking about it long after the last page' JANELLE BROWN
'A clever and delicious treat that’s even more addictive than the reality television it lambasts… I dare you not to tear through [it] at lightning speed' ZAKIYA DALILA HARRIS
'That rare combination of propulsive and brilliant. I read it in one big gulp and then brought it up at two different dinners to talk about its mix of gender dynamics, capitalism, and power' MEGAN GIDDINGS
