DOTTIE - ABDULRAZAK GURNAH KARTONIERT (TB)

By the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature 2021    A searing tale of a young woman
discovering her troubled family history and cultural past   Dottie Badoura Fatma Balfour finds
solace amidst the squalor of her childhood by spinning warm tales of affection about her
beautiful names. But she knows nothing of their origins  and little of her family history - or
the abuse her ancestors suffered as they made their home in Britain.  At seventeen  she takes
on the burden of responsibility for her brother and sister and is obsessed with keeping the
family together. However  as Sophie  lumpen yet voluptuous  drifts away  and the confused
Hudson is absorbed into the world of crime  Dottie is forced to consider her own needs.
Building on her fragmented  tantalising memories  she begins to clear a path through life 
gradually gathering the confidence to take risks  to forge friendships and to challenge the
labels that have been forced upon her.
