Description

Incomparable World by S I Martin A visceral reimagining of life in 1780s London, this novel tells the story of African-American soldiers who fought for liberty on the side of the British. After escaping their American oppressors, they find themselves struggling to survive on the streets of London, where poverty and crime await. Their only hope for a better future is to concoct a daring scheme that will pay off. With energy and vivid detail, this book boldly uncovers a long-buried narrative of black Britain, shedding light on a pivotal moment in history. Selected by Booker Prize-winning author Bernardine Evaristo, Incomparable World rediscovers and celebrates pioneering books depicting black Britain, remapping the nation for a new generation.
