'Love Ferrante? Read this. . . follows one young man's self-realisation in a foreboding juvenile prison' Telegraph
'An extraordinary tale of crime and punishment in Naples. . . Moving and thought-provoking, the novel deserves to appear on prize lists' FT
Zeno is fifteen years old, a minor by law, but he grew up long ago in the dusty heat of Naples. Winding down cobbled streets on his motorbike, he delivers baggies and picks pockets, doing whatever it takes to put food on the table and steal a few precious moments of freedom with his girlfriend, Natalina, in the city's starlit piazzas.
That's until a rival gang member pulls up beside him with a gun, and Zeno ends up on the brutal prison island of Nisida. Separated from all he loves by the cruel, glittering sea, with a cell window looking out at distant beaches, Zeno promises to write down the story of his life in exchange for a visit home. But the sea has eyes everywhere, and someone on the outside wants revenge.
Boldly original and deeply humane, So People Know It's Me unleashes Zeno's luminous, unguarded and defiant voice - dreaming of a fragile future beyond Nisida's walls.
