Produktbeschreibung

"A perfect weekend or holiday read" Sit back, relax and escape for a little while into the world of DAISY. "DAISY" is a gentle family saga, spanning almost 100 years, from 1887 to 1974. It is set in Alabama, Harlem and London and incorporates some of the evils of society -- poverty, racism and snobbery -- as well as some of the greatest that life has to offer -- family, friendship and love. "Being born poor was a scar that never faded." "She had never experienced racial hatred first hand, so had no real idea of how it could erode a person's whole life."
