was the foremother of black British women's writing . . . powerful
fictions written from and about our lives' Bernardine Evaristo
'Most dreams, as all dreamers know quite well, do have setbacks.
Adah's dream was no exception, for hers had many' They nicknamed
Adah 'the Igbo tigress' at school in Nigeria, she was so fearless.
Now she has moved to London to join her husband, and is determined
to succeed. But her welcome from 1960's England - and the man she
married - is a cold one. Providing for her growing family,
struggling to survive and negotiating everyday injustices along the
way, Adah still resolves that she will never give up her dream of
becoming a writer. 'Bold, brave, defiant ... its exploration of
blackness, the white gaze, and the development of the main
character Adah's sense of self is extremely powerful' Gal-dem
