![]() After her husband, Bernard, left for the war she opened her house for servicemen, which is when she met Gilbert. She is fair, open-minded and has a very big and kind heart. Queenie Bligh: The level-headed character in the book.As the story is narrated from various viewpoints, it is achronological, skipping around to discuss each character's life before the outbreak of WWII. While the novel focuses on the narratives of Gilbert and Hortense as they adjust to life in England, after a reception that is not quite the warm embrace that they had hoped for, the interracial relationship between Queenie and Michael is central to the plot and the connections that are established between all of the characters. Mainly set in 1948, the plot focuses on the diaspora of Jamaican immigrants, who, escaping economic hardship on their own "small island", move to England, the Mother Country, for which the men have fought during World War II. The novel is based on four main characters-Hortense, Queenie, Gilbert and Bernard-and the story is told from each of their points of view. Small Island is a 2004 prize-winning novel by British author Andrea Levy, her fourth novel. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I loved every single moment of this journey, even the hard ones.

There is a pulsating menace at the heart of the book, of which the title character is an uncannily indeterminate avatar, but also a deep sadness at the human cost of conflict. But it also seems clear to me that these insistent strategies are in service of the book’s mood of total claustrophobia, and that they contribute to, rather than diminish, its overall effectiveness. The book’s long sentences, its penchant for the exhaustive, can at times be challenging, and there were stretches where I found its uncanny energies stagnated for too long. Among Burns’ singular strengths as a writer is her ability to address the topics of trauma and tyranny with a playfulness that somehow never diminishes the sense of her absolute seriousness. For all the simplicity of its setup, Milkman is a richly complex portrayal of a besieged community and its traumatized citizens, of lives lived within many concentric circles of oppression. ![]() ![]() ![]() Then around the fifth year, something clicked for each, and I could at last see my way forward.
