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.
