About the book: An award-winning novel by British writer Andrea Levy. Hortense arrives in London from Jamaica in 1948 with her life in her suitcase, her heart broken, her resolve intact. Her husband returns from the war expecting to be received as a hero, but finds his status as a black man in Britain to be second class. Their white landlady, Queenie, befriends them until her husband returns from combat with issues of his own to resolve.

    Hi there,

    My name’s Becky and I work at Radio Devon – we’re looking at book clubs/book sales/book shops today, and I was hoping to speak to a Devon based book club member/leader to talk about the last books you bought and read, and the workings of a book club – If you’re available, please can you send me an email, or give me a call on 01752234533

    Thank you,

    Becky
