Andrea Levy - The Long Song

Takes the form of a fictional memoir by July, a slave raised on a 19th-century plantation overseen by her white father. The spirited and capricious July recounts her life - a childhood as the 'pet' of her master's spoiled sister, the Baptist wars and the eventual abolition of slavery - in frank and sparkling prose.
