Story
Amryl Johnson came to England from Trinidad when she was 11. As an adult in 1983, ready for a homecoming, she embarks on a journey through the Caribbean searching for home, searching for herself. Landing in Trinidad as carnival begins, she instantly surrenders to the collective, pulsating rhythm of the crowd, euphoric in her total freedom. This elation is shattered when she finds the house where she was born has been destroyed. She cannot escape - nor does she want to - from the inheritance of colonialism.

Story
In the years just after the American revolution, London was the unlikely refuge for thousands of Black Americans who fought for liberty on the side of the British. Buckram, Georgie and William have earned their freedom and escaped their American oppressors, but on the streets of London, poverty awaits with equal cruelty.

Story
Travelling over from Jamaica as a teenager, Barbara's journey is remarkable. She finds her footing in TV and blossoms. But with the responsibility of being the first Black woman reporting on TV comes an enormous amount of pressure, and a flood of hateful letters and complaints from viewers that eventually costs her the job. In the aftermath of this fallout, she goes through a period of self-discovery that allows her to carve out a new space for herself first in the UK and then back home in Jamaica.

Story
Il filo parte da Amma, drammaturga nera britannica in procinto di mettere in scena la sua prima opera fuori dalla nicchia, e collega le altre undici storie, tutte diverse, tutte importanti per la costituzione di un arazzo complicato e meraviglioso. Bernardine Evaristo, prima vincitrice nera del prestigioso Booker Prize, ci regala la rara e preziosa possibilità di guardare con occhi nuovi il nostro mondo, quel mondo che ci comprende e ci sovrasta e di cui, vuoi per pigrizia e vuoi per incapacità umana, siamo sempre e comunque troppo ignoranti.

Story
Barrington, geboren und aufgewachsen in Antigua, liebt seine Retro-Anzüge und hat immer das passende Shakespeare-Zitat parat. Mit seiner Frau Carmel führt er ein beschauliches Leben in Hackney, London: zwei Kinder, ein Haus, Ruhestand. Doch unter der perfekten Oberfläche führt Barry ein Doppelleben. Sein Freund Morris ist ebenfalls nach England ausgewandert – denn die beiden führen seit jeher eine heimliche Beziehung. Während sich ihre Ehe auf den Abgrund zubewegt, entscheidet Barry, dass er endlich offen mit Morris zusammenleben will.

Story
L'autrice del fortunato "Ragazza, donna, altro", racconta qui la schiavitù in un modo nuovo, diverso. Immagina un mondo in cui la tratta atlantica degli schiavi viene ribaltata lungo la linea del colore: sono i neri ad aver fondato un impero coloniale a partire dal Regno Unito di Grande Ambossa, e i bianchi a essere razziati dall'Europa e trasportati come schiavi al di là del mare, nelle Isole del Giappone Occidentale. Ripercorriamo la storia di Doris alternando la contemporaneità della protagonista e il suo personale viaggio verso la libertà.

Story
Leonora Brito was a writer of exceptional stories. In Dat's Love, she soaks up the sights, sounds and colours of Cardiff to boldly explore race and history. With each electric story, Brito introduces a unique cast of characters, vibrantly elevating their everyday lives. From 59-year-old Dorothy taking up nude modelling to black aristocrat Dido Elizabeth Belle, from the assassination of JFK to what's going down at the Blue Bayou, Brito blends the surreal and the mundane to redress history and immerse the reader in a vibrantly painted world.
