11/10/2023 0 Comments Friendships secrets and liesNaomi Ishiguro, author of Escape Routes “An evocative exploration of female friendships and politics, intimacy I loved every plot twist, found myself completely drawn in by the blend of idealism, glamour and ruthlessness in the world in which it takes place, and was captivated by the three central characters, and the complex, shifting relationships between them.” Neema Shah, author of Kololo Hill “ Can You See Me Now? is a deft exploration of power, misogyny, responsibility and what it means for certain people to have control over certain narratives. I was gripped by the twisty plot and loved learning more about Delhi culture.” Emma Curtis, bestselling author of One Little Mistake “I really enjoyed this new thriller. It has everything a friendship with secrets, a devastating crime, jealousy, politics and reputation. Nicola Rayner, author of The Girl Before You “I loved Trisha Sakhlecha's latest psychological thriller. Nothing is quite what it seems in this tautly written psych suspense.” Woman’s Own “Intricately plotted and righteously angry, Can You See Me Now? is a thought-provoking tale of female friendship struggling to survive in a patriarchal society. Edward Wilson, author of The Envoy “A shocking, scandalous story that’s quite brilliant.” Trisha Sakhlecha is a novelist to watch.” A great read and one of my books of the year. But it is.also about friendship, ambition, betrayal and growing up. It is a book about India that can stand proudly beside Salman Rushdie’s Midnight’s Children. Herald “ Can You See Me Now? is a highly literary novel, but one with all the page-turning compulsion of an unputdownable thriller. BBC Radio 4 Open Book (Elizabeth Day) “A mesmerising tale…of an intense yet toxic friendship that implodes with deadly consequences.” Lesley Kara, bestselling author of The Rumour “A pacey exploration of female friendship, power and misogyny.” Daily Mail “A spellbinding and stunningly original portrait of friendship, secrets and family, set against the turbulent background of Indian politics. Harriet Tyce, bestselling author of Blood Orange “Sakhlecha is excellent at creating atmospheres, whether its dark, gossipy, rivalry.or the raw power play of Indian politics.that permeates this moving tale.” I was enthralled by the dual timelines, the political setting and the way the dynamics from the women’s past played out in the present. Sunday Times “Well written and compulsive, Can You See Me Now? is a sophisticated page-turner. Praise for Can You See Me Now? “Deceptively clever…At first sight a conventional story about teenage rivalry, the novel opens out into an unflinching account of the distorting effect of privilege on adolescent behaviour.”
