Krátky popis
'A searing, rhapsodic novel. The Book of Echoes is filled with
beauty, devastation and the power of ancestral connections that
ripple through the ages' IRENOSEN OKOJIE'So bewitching I almost
felt like I time-travelled back into Brixton 1981. A gorgeous book
- totally recommended.' ALEX WHEATLEA sweeping, uplifting story of
how a boy from Brixton and a girl from Lagos escape their dark past
to find themselves a bright future. 1981: England looks forward to
a new decade.But on the streets of Brixton, it's hard to hold onto
your dreams, especially if you are a young black man. Racial
tensions rumble, and now Michael Watson might land in jail for a
crime he did not commit.Thousands of miles away, village girl Ngozi
abandons her orange stall for the chance to work as a maid. Alone
in a big city, Ngozi's fortunes turn dark and soon both her heart
and hopes are shattered.From dusty roads to gritty pavements, Ngozi
and Michael's journey towards a better life is strewn with
heartache and injustice.When they finally collide, their lives will
be transformed for ever. With irresistible joy and grace, Rosanna
Amaka writes of people moving between worlds, and asks how we can
heal and help each other. Humming with beauty and horror, tragedy
and triumph, THE BOOK OF ECHOES is a powerful debut from an
authentic new voice in British fiction.
