Twin Sisters, a Chef, a Train Porter, a Trumpeter + a Soprano

February is Black History Month and we have some hugely talented Canadian Black authors’ books on our shelves. Whether their stories are fictional or real, we are only enriched and enlightened when we listen to and learn from others’ experiences.

Half-Blood Blues by Esi Edugyan and I’ve Been Meaning to Tell You by David Chariandy are both Backbeat Recommended Reads.

Have you read any of these books or other books by these authors?
