'The standout, authentic voice of a generation' Herald

'Utterly compelling' Ian Rankin, New Statesman

'McGarvey is a rarity: a working-class writer who has fought to make the middle-class world hear what he has to say' Nick Cohen, Guardian

Darren McGarvey is the Orwell Prize winning author of Poverty Safari: Understanding the Anger of Britain's Underclass and has drawn several comparisons with George Orwell himself from public figures like Andrew Adonis and Paul Mason. Originally published by Luath Press, Poverty Safari secured a deal with Pan Macmillan imprint Picador to republish the book in August 2018. The book is an Amazon and Sunday Times Best-Seller and thanks to strong word of mouth from across the social and political spectrum, continues to garner positive reviews and media coverage for its unique blend of memoir, journalism and polemic on the topic of poverty.
