Brothers Jackson & Frank live on the margins of a big urban sprawl. From abandoned tower blocks to gleaming skyscrapers, their city is brutal, beautiful & divided. As anti-government protests erupt across the teeming metropolis, the brothers sail in search of the Red Citadel & its promise of a radical new way of life. A striking portrait of the precarity of modern urban living, & of the fierce bonds that grow between brothers, Patrick Langley`s debut ARKADY is a brilliant coming-of-age novel, as brimming with vitality as the city itself.
