Bidisha’s "Too Fast To Live" is a reinterpretation of the Arthurian legends, set in contemporary London. A novel about lost loves, crazy ladies, treacherous political affairs, betrayal and ambition; it is both an extension and inversion of the Camelot story, with a vivid assembly of fabulously original characters, spinning irrevocably out of control

The female antidote to Alex Garland, Bidisha's "Too Fast to Live" is a Tarantino-esque reinterpretation of the Arthurian legends, set in contemporary London. A fast-paced novel about lost loves, crazy ladies, treacherous political affairs, betrayal and ambition; it takes prisoners and throws them into modern day Camelot - an empire ruled by terror, outrage and secret passion.

Their voices come from Bethlehem and Hebron. You can hear them from Jerusalem to Nazareth, and witness their protests in Gaza and Ramallah. From the refugee camps in the West Bank, you can hear the voices of the Palestinian people call out to demand self-determination and a better quality of life. But outside of Israel and the occupied territories, these individual voices are rarely heard—until now. In Beyond the Wall: Writing a Path through Palestine, internationally renowned feminist critic and writer Bidisha collects the testimonies of an occupied people—ordinary citizens, activists, children—alongside those of international aid workers and foreign visitors for a revelatory look at a population on the margins. Called “beautifully belligerent, [and] fiercely intelligent” by The Independent and a “dazzlingly creative writer” by the LondonTimes, Bidisha amplifies the voices of the Palestinian people in this book and lends to them her own considerable strength.
