Description
A visceral reimagining of 1780s London, showcasing the untold stories of African-American soldiers grappling with their freedom after the American revolution. 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. Ruthless, chaotic, and endlessly evolving, London forces them into a life of crime, and a life on the margins. Their only hope for a better future is to concoct a scheme so daring, it will be a miracle if it pays off. Pulsating with energy and vivid detail, Incomparable World boldly uncovers a long-buried narrative of black Britain. "To my knowledge, Incomparable World remains the only novel about this specific aspect of Black British History. Indeed, so few novels have been written about the Black presence in these shores before the twentieth century that the field is almost completely wide open for writers to colour in the empty space." --Bernardine Evaristo
