26 reviewsIn Laura Fish's ambitious and richly complex novel, three very different women struggle for freedom.
"A provocative contribution to revisionist (and feminist) post-colonial fiction." - TLS
While Elizabeth Barrett Browning is confined to bed, chafing against the restriction of her doctors and writing poetry and fretful letters, at her family's Jamaican estate Kaydia, the Creole housekeeper, tries to protect her daughter from their predatory master; and a recently freed black slave, Sheba, mourns the loss of her lover. All three women struggle to escape a tragic but ever-present past.
"Shaw is an accomplished storyteller, whose beautiful prose delivers you right into the heart of the plantation." - Time Out
As Elizabeth, a passionate abolitionist struggles to come to terms with the source of her wealth and privilege both Sheba and Kydia fight to escape a tragic past that seems ever-present. The resulting novel is an extraordinary evocation of the dark side of the nineteenth century that is both horrifying and ultimately redeeming.
