Noughts and Crosses

Malorie Blackman

First Published: January 2001 Sephy is a Cross: she lives a life of privilege and power. Callum is a nought: he's considered to be less than nothing - a blanker, there to serve Crosses. They've been friends since they were children, and they both know that's as far as it can ever go. Noughts and Crosses are fated to be bitter enemies - love is out of the question. Then - in spite of a world that is fiercely against them - these star-crossed lovers choose each other. But this is love story that will lead both of them into terrible danger . . . and which will have shocking repercussions for generations to come. PAPERBACK Publisher: Doubleday Children's Publishing/ Penguin Random House ISBN: 9780241388396

An unforgettable book and a concept that you can hardly believe didn’t exist before she wrote it. This is a book that everyone should read, for its compassion, its cry for justice and portrait of humanity. Malorie will forever more be a literary icon because of this story.
