An excellent sequel-of-sorts to White Feathers, this book also addresses the terrible cost of war, repression and abuse of power, but from a different perspective. Lucia's story draws in all those themes, as well as the ever-present oppression of racism. The use of music as a linking thread throughout the many twists and turns of the plot works very well - Lucia's passion for her art is never in doubt. The world of Black intellectuals in early 20th century London, which is not as well-known as it should be, is vividly drawn and the (no doubt extensive) research is worn lightly. Although Lucia's experiences are quite different from those of Eva, Sybil, Lilian and other White Feathers characters who reappear in the book, she nevertheless has in common with them a spirit of independence and unwillingness to be crushed by the suffocating forces of respectability. There's a reason all these characters find each other! A wonderful story of passion, vengeance, love, loss and music. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
