'Not since Joan Didion in her prime has a writer reported from inside inside a system gone mad with this much style, intelligence and wit. I read Nellie Bowles' Morning After the Revolution with gathering excitement - it's a perfect book' - Caitlin Flanagan 'Wickedly enjoyable' - Rachel Cooke, Observer ‘Bowles goes out and gets the story rather than theorising from the comfort of her desk … The snapshots built a transfixing collage of lunacy, but I ended every chapter longing to know more … Bowles writes with commendable (and slightly scary) frankness’ - Sarah Ditum, The Times ‘Bowles’s insistence on pursuing the truth — on being curious about what is true, and what is going on — is an animating feature of Morning After the Revolution’ - Kat Rosenfield, Unherd
