Irene Sabatini: News - Irene Sabatini

Released November 6th:
Peace & Conflict

Robert's voice is ticklish, immediate, and won my heart in a flash. He's a young boy with natural charm, gumption and an energetic, infectious curiosity about the world around him - a world rich with characters and history. Irene talks about extremely complex issues with warm humour and a deft touch, and her books will appeal to readers of all ages."

"This year's Orange Award for New Writers goes to a book whose words fly off the page, as they were reputedly flying off the pen as it was written. It is a joy of a novel from a born-storyteller who's a great new talent."
