Decolonial Daughter: Letters from a Black Woman to Her European Son (PB) (2018)

Having moved to Copenhagen, Denmark from Brooklyn over 18 years ago, Brown attempts to contextualise her and her son's existence in a post-colonial and supposedly post-racial world where the very machine of so-called progress has been premised upon the demise of her lineage. Through these letters, Brown writes the past into the present - penned from the country that has been declared The Happiest Place in the World - creating a vision that is a necessary alternative to the dystopian one currently being bought and sold.
