Girl, Woman, Other

- Winner of the 2019 Booker Prize.
- This is Britain as you've never read it.
- This is Britain as it has never been told.

From Newcastle to Cornwall, from the birth of the twentieth century to the teens of the twenty-first, Girl Woman Other follows a cast of twelve characters on their personal journeys through this country and the last hundred years. They're each looking for something - a shared past, an unexpected future, a place to call home, somewhere to fit in, a lover, a missed mother, a lost father, even just a touch of hope . . .

'Masterful . . . A choral love song to black womanhood in modern Great Britain' - Elle

'Bernardine Evaristo can take any story from any time and turn it into something vibrating with life' - Ali Smith, author of How to be both

'Sparkling, inventive' - Sunday Times
