゚ヤヘ Synopsis
A Black Englishman is a sweeping and intimate novel set in 1920s India during the fading years of the British Raj. It tells the story of a passionate and unlikely relationship between Isabel, a young English widow searching for freedom and meaning, and Sam, a British Army officer of Indian descent who must constantly navigate the prejudices of the colonial world. Together, their devotion to each other takes them across the vastness of India and into the heart of personal and political turmoil. The novel explores love, race, faith, identity, and the cost of being truly human in a divided empire.
゚メᆲ Reviews
Carolyn Slaughter seizes on the complex historical and cultural ambiguities of the dying days of the Raj, lacing them into a richly detailed, passionately felt story that explores the crossing of moral, racial and social boundaries. ¬タモ Daily Mail
