Praise for The Furrows

Serpell is a terrific destabiliser, even at the level of the sentence... There are no tidy moral lessons at the end of her dissonant and time-contorting fable - no bones to bury, no truth to pin ...

Beejay Silcox, The Guardian

A masterfully intelligent and many-sided book

The Telegraph

The Furrows...confirms Serpell's place as one of the most innovative and intelligent writers today
