Description

Betty Trask Award winner 2016. This stunning debut novel tells the story of Joy, a fragile outsider living in London, struggling to come to terms with her mother's sudden death. A unique artefact inherited from her mother becomes a source of comfort and fascination.

As Joy delves deeper into the past, she begins to uncover secrets about her family's history, including ties to a mysterious female figure who appears in her photographs. The lines between past and present start to blur, revealing a richly woven narrative of love, hope, loss, and power.

A beautifully crafted tale that juxtaposes everyday London with African folklore and mysticism, Butterfly Fish is a compelling and haunting story that explores the complexities of family, identity, and belonging.
