Sinossi
La serie Noughts & Crosses è ancora la mia preferita in assoluto e mi ha mostrato quanto possa essere incredibile la narrazione. STORMZY 'Sono cresciuta leggendola. Era uno dei pochi libri sui neri, quindi mi sentivo vista.' CANDICE CARTY-WILLIAMS 'Il libro più originale che abbia mai letto.' BENJAMIN ZEPHANIAH 'Malorie Blackman è assolutamente incredibile. [ Noughts & Crosses ] mi ha davvero parlato, soprattutto come donna con doppia eredità.' ZAWE ASHTON_____ Mi chiamo Callie Rose. Mia madre è una Cross, una della cosiddetta élite al potere. Mio padre era un Nought. Mio padre era un assassino. Mio padre era un terrorista. Questi fatti sono le uniche cose mie e reali. Quindi non mi dispiace tanto che mi lascio tutto alle spalle. Non c'è niente qui a cui valga la pena aggrapparsi. Sono passati sedici anni da quando Sephy Hadley ha incontrato per la prima volta Callum McGregor, e l'odio che li divideva si è trasformato in speranza. Ma il mondo non è cambiato abbastanza in fretta per la loro figlia, Callie Rose. Crescere con una doppia eredità in un mondo in cui un amaro pregiudizio divide Noughts and Crosses ha significato che è un'estranea ovunque si giri. Entra in scena Jude McGregor. Jude insegna a Callie la vera storia della sua famiglia e più lei impara più lui la convince a dove risiedono davvero le sue lealtà. Ma presto Callie viene catturata in una trappola da cui non riesce a uscire, una che avrà conseguenze mortali. Votata come uno dei libri più amati del Regno Unito, la serie Noughts & Crosses di Malorie Blackman è un pezzo fondamentale della narrativa YA; un vero classico moderno.

Informazioni sull'autore
Malorie Blackman has written over seventy books for children and young adults, including the Noughts & Crosses series, Thief and a science-fiction thriller, Chasing the Stars. Many of her books have also been adapted for stage and television, including a BAFTA-award-winning BBC production of Pig-Heart Boy and a Pilot Theatre stage adaptation by Sabrina Mahfouz of Noughts & Crosses. There is also a major BBC production of Noughts & Crosses, with Roc Nation (Jay-Z's entertainment company) curating the soundtrack as executive music producer. In 2005 Malorie was honoured with the Eleanor Farjeon Award in recognition of her distinguished contribution to the world of children's books. In 2008 she received an OBE for her services to children's literature, and between 2013 and 2015 she was the Children's Laureate. Most recently Malorie wrote for the Doctor Who series on BBC One, and the fifth novel in her Noughts & Crosses series, Crossfire, was published by Penguin Random House Children's in summer 2019.
