Winner of the 2020 Northern Book Prize
This is the
first novel by Sammy Wright, a secondary-school teacher with first-hand
experience of a contemporary Britain in which children starve and the gulf
between rich and poor is vast and growing. Charting the impact on a small
community of a girl being plucked by happenstance from her foster home and
dropped into a dazzling new life as a London model, Fit is a moving,
tragic, but ultimately hopeful look at the ways in which poverty and neglect
can echo through a life . . . even after you think you've gotten your fairy-tale
ending.
Fit was the winner, by unanimous decision, of the 2020 Northern Book Prize.
