This Motherless Land
Sent from Nigeria to an English family that will not quite have her, in a Mansfield Park recast.
Funke is sent from Nigeria to her mother’s English family after a loss, and finds a household that will never quite accept her. Nikki May writes across two countries and two branches of one family, in a novel that takes its shape from Mansfield Park and its temperature from the racism nobody in it will name.
