Description
In the tradition of The Whiteness of Bones, the poignant, funny, and utterly winning story of an African girl's metamorphasis into an upper-class English schoolgirl--with an edge. Bedford, who herself survived leaving Nigeria behind for England, turns her heroine's passage through the labyrinth of race and culture into a bittersweet but triumphant odyssey.
