Many stories have been told using different characters’ point of view. Few authors have managed like Levy to convey not only different perspectives, but also different voices and universes. #SmallIsland #AndreaLevy #WomensPrize #BookChat #booksky
The racism in the novel is not justified, it’s contextualized and, thus, normalized. This is how people thought and lived back then. What in our own time will be looked back on and contextualized to make sense to future readers? #SmallIsland #AndreaLevy #WomensPrize #BookChat #booksky #racism
The scenes from the war carry a different, almost clipped cadence, strong enough to hold a world, fleet enough to escape it—giving those passages a documentary touch. #SmallIsland #AndreaLevy #WomensPrize #BookChat #booksky
The infantilizing manner with which a POC is approached solely based on their physical appearance hits home on so many levels, it makes the reading annoying. #SmallIsland #AndreaLevy #WomensPrize #BookChat #booksky
Levy separates her universe and the reader with lense of distance and unfamiliarity that forces us to view ourselves through a prism. #SmallIsland #AndreaLevy #WomensPrize #BookChat #booksky
It’s Book Week Scotland. What are you all reading? I’m spending time with this gem and #StolenFocus by #JohannHari. #SmallIsland #AndreaLevy #WomensPrize #BookChat #booksky #BookWeekScotland
Small Island by Andrea Levy is a masterclass in how speech can be used to narrate generations of life. #SmallIsland #AndreaLevy #WomensPrize #BookChat #booksky
