The Compound is a debut novel described as a dark, addictive literary satire on modern excess and reality television. It is often summarized as “Lord of the Flies meets Love Island” with dystopian undertones.
Nothing to lose. Everything to gain. Winner takes all.
You wake up in a compound in the middle of the desert, along with nine other women.
All of you are young, all beautiful, all keen to escape the grinding poverty, political unrest and environmental catastrophe of the outside world.
You realise that cameras are tracking your every move, broadcasting to millions of reality TV fans.
Soon, ten men will arrive on foot – if they all survive the journey.
What will you have to do to win?
And what happens to the losers?
The Compound is an addictive literary satire on modern excess: it holds a twisted mirror up to our obsession with winning, losing and, above all, watching.
