By Bernardine Evaristo

Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and reviews from our contributors. Girl, Woman, Other by Bernardine Evaristo beautifully interweaves narratives about race, womanhood and identity.

What We Say: “An essential, vivid, nuanced picture of life as a Black woman in modern Britain, told through the interlinked stories of 12 diverse characters – ranging from a teenage student to a 93-year-old farmer” – Ella Marlow-Gilks

What They Say: “If you don’t yet know her work, you should – she says things about modern Britain that no one else does” – Maggie Gee, The Guardian

Available on Bookshop.org, Waterstones and Barnes & Noble
