The Book of the Week is 'Washington Black' by Esi Edugyan.
The Book of the Week is 'Washington Black' by Esi Edugyan. Washington Black has only ever known the Barbados sugar plantation where he has been a slave since birth. Chosen out of nowhere to be a manservant for an eccentric naturalist and explorer, Washington is surprised by a new life of adventure, learning, and most surprising of all-respect. Together they explore the world, with Washington claiming his own freedom, only to have his, and his 'master's' newfound happiness jeopardized.
