A review by cattytrona
Fruit of the Lemon by Andrea Levy

4.0

The first third is slow and not very engaging. It really made me hesitate about getting into it, and about being able to recommend it. But once the second part starts, and you begin to get told all these stories — which are both really interesting snapshots of interesting lives, and so well told — and the family tree conceit comes through, the book becomes something a bit special.
