***WINNER OF THE BOOKER PRIZE 2019***

*SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION 2020*

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

This is Britain as you've never read it.
This is Britain as it has never been told.

From Newcastle to Cornwall, from the birth of the twentieth century to the teens of the twenty-first, Girl, Woman, Other follows a cast of twelve characters on their personal journeys through this country and the last hundred years. They're each looking for something - a shared past, an unexpected future, a place to call home, somewhere to fit in, a lover, a missed mother, a lost father, even just a touch of hope . . .

'Masterful . . . A choral love song to black womanhood in modern Great Britain' Elle

'Ambitious, flowing and all-encompassing, an offbeat narrative that'll leave your mind in an invigorated whirl... [It] unites poetry, social history, women's voices and beyond.' Stylist

'Bernardine Evaristo can take any story from any time and turn it into something vibrating with life' Ali Smith, author of How to be both

'Sparkling, inventive' Sunday Times

'Funny, sad, tender and true, deserves to win awards' Red

'Brims with vitality' Financial Times
'Exceptional. You have to order it right now' Stylist

SHORTLISTED FOR THE GORDON BURN PRIZE 2019

    I absolutely love this writer, however, this book was too close to home for me, I am an abandoned child and still looking for my mother, I have very similar issues as per the book. My father is black my mother white, yes I am light brown and could pass as being from any part of the world, just don\'t fit in. My whole life I have to deal with Racism, I felt as if this book was about me. The second part of the book was my favorite bit, I enjoyed it very much. As for the ending, only wished it was me meeting my mum someday. I will keep looking in the meantime.

    Christina O'D The novel itself is a revelation, cleverly conceived, powerfully written, moving and evocative. It is almost prose poetry. Bernadine Evaristo is more than deserving of the Booker Prize. As for the readng, it is a tour de force on the part of Anna-Maria Nabirye. Thank you Audiobooks.

    Good reader, very versatile, able to do many kinds of voices according to age, gender, accent.The story spun on and on in an anecdotal way, and though the threads were tied up in the end, there wasn’t much that was inventive in the style or construction, and I was disappointed in it as a Booker prize winner for a prose work.

    Too many characters, I really didn’t get how they were connected. I felt like readying 7 books of the same genre simultaneously. Really hard to get into it.

    I know this will be an unpopular opinion but I really didn't enjoy this book. I found it rambled on
