Manifesto. Warum ich niemals aufgebe

Woman. Black. Lesbian. Precarious. Writer. For forty years, these were the stigmas that Bernardine Evaristo faced. But from the very beginning, she fought against them, wrote against them, and advocated for a space of diversity and tolerance for all. In "Manifesto," the daughter of an English mother and a Nigerian father, raised in the impoverished South of London, reflects on the milestones of her life, the highs and lows, and recounts how she ultimately became the first black winner of the Booker Prize – a manifesto for never giving up. An eye-opening book and a captivating reading experience. "Bernardine Evaristo is one of those who should be read everywhere and by everyone."
