'Barbaric, brutal and utterly beautiful. The Unworthy is a searing haunt of a novel that I will never forget' - Lucy Rose, author of 'The Lamb' 'Brutal and aching. A perfect fever dream of a book' - Heather Darwent, author of 'The Things We Do to Our Friends' 'Unflinching, uncompromising, and unforgettable. Agustina Bazterrica shines a light at the end of the brutal and bleak path we are on so that maybe, just maybe, we can turn around and forge a new one' - Paul Tremblay, author of 'The Cabin at the End of the World'
