Small island is brilliant! Read the book years ago when it came out and saw it on telly last year, also saw Blood and Oil recently, also brilliant, both were on the good ole auntie Beeb.

I am looking forward to reading (Small Island) Andrea Levy's new book....

Here's a review from Psychologies Magazine of March 2010

The Long Song
Andrea Levy (£18.99, Headline) **** (4 out of 5 ).

<span style="font-style: italic">Levy's first novel after the hugely successful Small Island tells the tale of another young West Indian woman, but this time she has travelled further back in history. The Long Song follows the trials and tribulations of July, a girl born into bondage on a plantation during the last years of slavery in Jamaica. Despite its meandering opening, the story grows more rewarding, as July discovers the consequences of freedom and falling in love with the wrong man.</span>

I also caught a lovely interview with her on BBC World Service
