I have been trying to read books representing people with different experiences than I'm accustomed to. This book explores the experiences of a wide-ranging loosely knit collection made up mostly of black women in Britain. It is a wonderful polyphonic novel.

I'm also interested in genealogy and loved the way characters connected at the end. I won't say more about that for fear of potentially spoiling it for others.

If you are at all interested in explorations in race, gender, or sexuality, you really should read this book.
