The Harrow
by Noah Eaton
Don’t be fooled by The Harrow’s seeming simplicity or by its uncluttered directness. It is a thriller and whodunit, yes. But it is also a novel rousingly elevated beyond its genre by a greater purpose, its analysis of council politics and the inevitable – but sad and irretrievable – loss of local journalism.

The Best Political Novels of 2025: The Orwell Prize for Fiction
From a book based on the actual love letters a British prime minister sent to his mistress in the run-up to World War I, to a fantastical tale that takes its cue from the Epic of Gilgamesh, there’s a wide variety of novels to choose from on the shortlist of this year’s Orwell Prize for Political Fiction. The comments are from the judging panel, chaired this year by British novelist Jim Crace.
