'A brilliant, feverishly imaginative novel.' Sharlene Teo



Trade Review
'Written in prose that disrespects established boundaries to reveal a unique and courageous voice, Julianne Pachico's The Anthill, is the story of two young people searching for identity and belonging. In doing so, and with the lightest of touches, Pachico lays bare the trauma of life in post-peace Columbia.' - Ingrid Persaud, author of Love after Love
'A stark look at a traumatized city and the way privilege corrupts.' - Elle
