As millions take to the streets to protest against white supremacy and police brutality towards black lives, The Vanishing Half dives headfirst into the meaning of racism in America following a pair of twins, one who chooses to 'pass' as a white woman, whilst the other embraces her black heritage. Spanning four decades from the 1950s, this story is a powerful exploration of race and racism and hands down the best and most relevant fiction I've read this year. - Simone
