A devastating example of what the graphic novel form is capable of, Sabrina is a very 21st century story of internet violence, fake news and conspiracy theories. Drawn in a deliberately plain style that chillingly normalises the brutality and trauma its characters undergo, Drnaso’s Man Booker Prize-longlisted work stands as a towering achievement in the genre.
Longlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2018
Shortlisted for the Orwell Prize for Political Fiction 2019
'The best book - in any medium - I have read about our current moment ... A masterpiece.' - Zadie Smith
Where is Sabrina? The answer is hidden on a videotape, a tape which is en route to several news outlets, and about to go viral.
A landmark graphic novel, already hailed as one of the most exciting and moving stories of recent years, Sabrina is a tale of modern mystery, anxiety, fringe paranoia and mainstream misinformation.
It is a book that tells the story of those left behind in the wake of tragedy, has important things to say about how we live now, and possesses the rare power to leave readers pulverised.
