Book Review of Little Bee (aka The Other Hand)

Little Bee (aka The Other Hand)
Zydeco avatar reviewed on + 80 more book reviews


An okay book about the treatment of a young, illegal immigrant African woman in England. While the issues raised in this novel are important and unfortunately underreported, their treatment in a work of uneven fiction does not do the subject matter justice.

While not a bad novel, it foreshadows much and left me laboring to finish it. The author would do well to write a non-fiction collection of similar stories.
