About this listen
Part dark romance, part fairy tale, DISORDER marks the arrival of bestselling Italian author Rokia, available for the first time in English, in a vibrant translation by Beth Hickling-Moore. The production is voiced by an all-star cast: Diane Guerrero (Orange is the New Black), William Gao (Heartstopper), Freya Allan (The Witcher) and Connor Swindells (Sex Education.)
Meet Olivia, Sia, Derek and Edgar. Four young people scarred by self-harm, anorexia and PTSD, each of them searching for a way to heal. Brought together by an unorthodox doctor, their friendship becomes instrumental as they battle their respective demons. Through a series of increasingly demanding challenges set by prestigious media company GNN, deliberately chosen to make them face their pasts, their friendship becomes a key part of how they learn to process their pain. As their relationships grow, the past is never too far away, with wounds constantly being re-opened. And while no-one will remain unscathed along the journey of recovery, one thing is for sure: love has the power to mend a bleeding heart.
Please note: this production includes descriptions of mental illness, death, child abuse, violence, domestic violence, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, miscarriage and substance abuse.

Outstanding
I rarely leave reviews and only started this out of boredom but oh my....what a brilliant story! Gritty, deliciously dark and thought provoking. Characters were amazing and by the end they had become so familiar. Dont expect action packed, but your preconceived ideas and unconscious biases will be spectacularly challenged.

Terrific Translation!
This is such a unique and original story, I’ve never read (or heard) anything quite like it! A great blend of romance, realism and fantastical folk-lore-like elements, and a fascinating way of exploring trauma and tense interpersonal relationships which evolve in unpredictable ways.
The translator has done an incredible job of rendering it into English from the original Italian - so slick and stylish and natural sounding - and the performers all inhabit their roles brilliantly, delivering the different attitudes of the various characters with their individual perspectives and vulnerabilities. I would have had no idea that it wasn’t written in English to begin with. I hope there’s more from this author being made available for an English readership/listenership soon - I can’t wait for the next one! I’ll also be keeping my eye out for other books translated by Beth Hickling-Moore!
Great work everybody!

Interesting and entertaining read
Really enjoyed this book and the way the author weaves fairy stories, romance and various mental health issues within the story. There are many interesting characters who each have their own story to tell.
