Product Description

Welcome to a world turned upside down...

One minute, Doris, from Engl&, is playing hide-&-seek with her sisters in the fields behind their cottage.

The next, someone puts a bag over her head & she ends up in the hold of a slave-ship sailing to the New World...

In this fantastically imaginative inversion of the transatlantic slave trade
- in which 'whytes' are enslaved by black people
- Bernardine Evaristo has created a thought-provoking satire that is as accessible & readable as it is intelligent & insightful. 

Blonde Roots brings the shackles & cries of long-ago barbarity uncomfortably close & raises timely questions about the society of today.
