Sobre este título

 'Will stick with you long after you've left the page. A triumph!' Yomi Adegoke, author of THE LIST
'Combined my favourite things, art and Caribbean food, with beautiful, nuanced characters that I could have spent a lifetime with.' Nathan Bryon, screenwriter of RYE LANE

In one tiny Caribbean restaurant, three friends try to build a future in a country that refuses to see them.

Judith came to Britain believing that hard work and respectability would keep her safe. Now a nurse, she keeps her head down and sends money home, quietly hoping her sacrifices will mean something.

Mikey is angry, restless and unafraid to speak truth to power - whether through protest or paint.

And Frank? Frank's just trying to find joy wherever he can, even if everything around him is falling apart.

Their worlds collide in a small Caribbean restaurant in North West London, where the smell of Scotch bonnet drifts out the windows and life-altering decisions are made between shifts and shared meals.

Across the decades, as new generations find their way in a city that changes around them, what remains is community, memory and the pulse of something unbreakable.

Soon Come is a rich, moving debut about migration, friendship and the spaces we create when the world gives us none. Inspired by true stories, this is a celebration of the everyday defiance and quiet dreams of London's Caribbean community - and what it means to belong.

'A captivating work of art by one of Britain's most imaginative minds.' Kelechi Okafor, author of EDGE OF HERE
