Shortlisted for this years Orwell Fiction Prize, The Accidental Immigrants is a work of political fable for our times. Dedicated to ‘all the people who lose their lives trying to reach a safer shore,’ Jo Mcmillan’s latest novel centres on a desperate British couple who are displaced from their home on a fictional Mediterranean island by a rising totalitarian regime.

Born from a disgust at the decade-long surge of European far right politics and the ineffective centrism that paves its way, The Accidental Immigrants is a novel that urges us to reflect on our own complacency and sense of exceptionalism. In Jo’s own words it is a mini revolution between two covers, a record of her resistance and an exercising of her freedom to imagine.
