Book
Washington Black / Esi Edugyan.
Eleven-year-old George Washington Black--or Wash--a field slave on a Barbados plantation, is initially terrified when he is chosen to be the manservant of his master's brother. To his surprise, however, the eccentric Christopher Wilde turns out to be a naturalist, explorer, inventor, and abolitionist. Soon Wash is initiated into a world where two people, separated by an impossible divide, can begin to see each other as human. But when a man is killed and a bounty is placed on Wash's head, they must abandon everything and flee. Spanning the Caribbean to the frozen Far North, London to Morocco, Washington Black is a story of self-reinvention and betrayal, of love and redemption, and of a world destroyed and made whole again.
