“I read
The World Unseen
at a gulp, so entrancing is it’s style, so complete it’s tale of love and betrayal, and so accurate it’s depiction …” of the physical, social and political scene…”
– Johannesburg Star, Book of the Week
“Sarif’s elegant and understated debut eschews emotional fireworks, and offers an unusual insight into early apartheid...a novel that lives up to its title.”
– The Times, Play
“In the tradition of Vikram Seth, Sarif throws down a literary gauntlet that very few writers will be able to pick and return with any conviction.”
– Pride
“A really wonderful book. Sarif’s writing is delicate and confident and the characters are real and very believable.”
– Maggie O’Farrell, Author
“Highly original…this is a stylishly written work. Sarif is near faultless…”
– India Weekly
“The characters shine with the beauty of Sarif’s deceptively skilful prose which keeps your eyes skating along the narrative in sheer enjoyment. I read this book in two long sittings, unable to put it down.”
– Dyverse
“If you only read one novel for the rest of the year, make it this one. Sarif is a new writer who deserves to win prizes.”
– Waterstones
