The Subjects

"The Subjects is a novel with an agenda, enticing us to engage with what is wrong but also to imagine something better...[T]imely, thought-provoking and inspirational.’ —The Saturday Paper

"This is a layered novel, ambitious in scope, its characters vividly drawn and resisting the cliches of delinquency. Its own narrative offers a masterclass, deftly pacing its reveals and alive to the questions they raise. And it does so with a stubborn optimism at its heart."—The Age

“Energetic and compelling from the opening pages. And in Daniel we find a voice that I was worried was disappearing from Australian fiction: unpretentious, smart and lacking in all mawkishness. It’s a joy to hear him, and it is a joy to read a book of such complex ideas that is also alert to the art of storytelling.”—Christos Tsiolkas, author of The Slap

"It's memorable cast of characters, rendered with such energy and compassion...seem to hum with life." — The Big Issue
