I can’t contain the brilliance of this book let alone encompass its relevance. This story needed to be told and and Levy did it perfectly!
When I think of perfection, I think of Small Island!
Reading it feels like opening my eyes to the world I knew existed but never quite learn its mussings. The diaspora of people of any culture has had so many stories and only those who have experienced it can tell it well. The importance of this story not only rests to the story itself but to the exquisite talent the author poured in its pages.

Hortense and Queenie: very flawed but grew to kinda like them anyway eventually. Gilbert: funny, smart darling, very likeable. Bernard: absolutely despicable, hated him
maybe i was just in the mood for something like this at the time. historical fiction that addresses race issues.
