Occupied

by Joss Sheldon

Genres: Historical Fiction; Literary Fiction

Synopsis

SOME PEOPLE LIVE UNDER OCCUPATION. SOME PEOPLE OCCUPY THEMSELVES. NO ONE IS FREE.

Step into a world which is both magically fictitious and shockingly real. Walk side-by-side with a refugee, native, occupier and economic migrant. And watch on as the world around you transforms from a halcyon past into a dystopian future.

Inspired by the occupations of Palestine, Kurdistan and Tibet, and by the corporate occupation of the west, Occupied is a haunting glance into a society which is a little too familiar for comfort. It truly is a unique piece of literary fiction…

Here's what reviewers have said about Occupied:

• "Darker than George Orwell's 1984" (AXS)
• "Candid and disquieting" (Free Tibet)
• "Genre-busting" (Pak Asia Times)
• "Brilliant" (Middle East Monitor)
• "A must read" (Buzzfeed)
