Rezensionen
Praise for The Violence:

The Violence in The Violence might be contagious, but what you really catch here is the anger so righteous, and so right here, right now. Delilah Dawson might have written the novel that defines this era. Stephen Graham Jones

A staggering, masterful tale of survival and redemption during a literal epidemic of violence. Dawson is a storyteller working at the top of her class. Chuck Wendig

A gorgeously creative and surprisingly gleeful story about the way violence infects every aspect of American life. Sarah Langan

A paean to the resilience of women . . . As the characters in this novel fight for their lives in a pandemic-cursed hellscape, The Violence could not be more of-the-moment. Alma Katsu

Delilah S. Dawson has crafted a pandemic thriller that s so much more a piercing examination of survival, courage, and self, terrifying and hopeful in equal measure. Peng Shepherd

An inspiring story of self-discovery, resilience, and hope, and a page-turning thrill ride that will leave you breathless. Sylvain Neuvel

Horrifying and inspiring in equal measure, The Violence shines a light on the epidemic of abuse women have always endured, folded into a stellar thriller full of danger, courage, and characters who feel alive. Christopher Golden
