A darkly funny, heart-wrenching satire that tears through the guts of the war news industry "Brave, funny and beautifully written."-Martin McDonagh, writer and director "Greenwood's style is compelling and blackly comic; the story could not be more serious."-The Guardian "A dark satire with real claws."-The Independent Catch-22 on speed and set in the Middle East, Vulture is a fast-paced satire of the war news industry and its moral blind spots, and a tragi-comic coming-of-age novel. An ambitious young journalist, Sara is sent to cover a war from the Beach Hotel in Gaza. The four-star hotel is a global media hub, promising safety and generator-powered internet, with hotel staff catering tirelessly to the needs of the world's media, even as their own homes and families are under threat. Sara is determined to launch her career as a star correspondent. So, when her fixer Nasser refuses to set up the dangerous story she thinks will win her a front page, she turns instead to Fadi, the youngest member of a powerful militant family. Driven by the demons of her entitled yet damaging childhood, Sara will stop at nothing to prove herself in this war, even if it means bringing disaster upon those around her. Greenwood's debut novel brings readers into the heart of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and with audacity and humour depicts the media's complicity in this ongoing tragedy.
