A review by jcansdale
The Servants' Quarters by Lynn Freed

3.0

Set in Africa, this post-WWII story is a coming of age story centering on a young girl whose family moves between the worlds of privilege and dependency. With unusual and disturbing characters surrounding her, she struggles with issues of identity and belonging.

While not the most gripping novel of this type, I found the perspective fresh and intriguing, and there were enough plot twists to keep my interest.
