Chilling in its hallucinogenic intensity, and told with the confidence and maturity of a natural storyteller, 'The Republic Of Trees' is an unforgettable, gothic first novel.

Narrated by the youngest of four English children who have taken to the French countryside to establish their own utopian community, 'The Republic Of Trees' is a compelling, disturbing and imaginatively charged evocation of adolescence, the desire to escape, and sexual fear and awakening.

All seems well in The Republic of Trees as the children hunt, bathe and educate themselves in the principles of Jean-Jacques Rouseau's The Social Contract but the sudden arrival of Joy and the new disciplines she brings, and Michael's increasingly confusing relationship with Becca, alters the mood of the camp considerably and irrevocably. As ever-darkening dream landscapes start to blend with reality in the forest, and the coded revolutionary language of the group takes on a clipped, macabre timbre, The Republic of Trees powers towards a shocking and terrifying conclusion.
