Skylark is a novel about love and deception, about the environmental movement and the state, about the 1990s, time of raves and rebellion... it's also inspired by the real-life story of Britain's undercover police.

Is joy the source of your smile, or is your smile the source of your joy? I loved this book by Sarah Ruhl, which makes so many interesting observations about the relationship between mind and body https://t.co/wMOBMeKU2H

Sometimes disparate strands of your life come together... on writing about spycops, and why I blew the whistle on a landmark report into protest policing https://t.co/INQLr17qvl

This is an excellent review. Excellent in the sense of 'positive' but - more satisfyingly still - in the sense of 'the reviewer has deeply engaged with the book'. For a sense of what Skylark is all about, read this one. Thank you to @MaxDunbar1 and @shinynewbooks 📚🙏😍

[shinynewbooks @shinynewbooks]

Skylark by Alice O'Keefe is reviewed by @MaxDunbar1 'In a country of lockdowns, borders bills and voter ID, O’Keefe’s ‘arrow of hope’ is needed more than ever. In Skylark that arrow will pierce your heart.' @CoronetBooks https://t.co/sj8xJGXrGo

Based in truth, #SKYLARK by @AliceOKeeffe weaves a beautiful tale of deceit and “is a thought-provoking, well-researched and compelling saga of worlds colliding”
