A Brief History Of Seven Killings

Marlon James

Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and our contributors’ reviews. A Brief History Of Seven Killings by Marlon James outlines the attempted assassination of Bob Marley.

What We Say: “Spanning three decades and multiple continents, this epic tells the story of the attempted assassination of Bob Marley – by seven gunmen who stormed his home – against the violent backdrop of 1970s and early 80s Jamaica and beyond. Truly original and a need to read” – Samantha de Haas

What They Say: “Vast and vastly ambitious... much to admire...fascinating...the author’s imaginative and stylistic range are impressive” – Sunday Times
