In Laura Fish’s ambitious and captivating novel, three very different women struggle for freedom. While Elizabeth Barrett Browning is confined to bed, chafing against the restriction of her doctors and writing poetry and fretful letters, at her family’s Jamaican estate Kaydia, the Creole housekeeper tries to protect her daughter from their predatory master and a recently freed black slave, Sheba, mourns the loss of her lover. As Elizabeth, a passionate abolitionist, struggles to come to terms with the source of her wealth and privilege both Sheba and Kydia fight to escape a tragic past which seems ever present. The resulting novel is an extraordinary evocation of the dark side of the nineteenth-century that is both horrifying and ultimately redeeming.

這本書極度契閤北京最近的天氣。對海洋的描寫,對主僕微妙關係的刻畫,對逃跑的抉擇,對生的渴望。最有意思的是隔斷瞭故事統一的敘事視角。虛實相間,鬼人相擁,黑白消散。
