Set in post–World War II England, the novel explores the complex relationships between Jamaicans and the British through four unforgettable characters, Hortense, Gilbert, Queenie, and Bernard.

As Jamaican immigrants Gilbert and Hortense arrive in England searching for opportunity, they are met with disillusionment and racism, forcing them to confront questions of race, migration, love and identity. A powerful and thought-provoking read that challenges perspectives and amplifies unheard voices.
