Anne Else reviews A Good Neighbourhood by Therese Anne Fowler, published by Hachette. Fowler’s new book adroitly weaves together the powerful strands of love, race, class and power shaping the lives of its characters, though not quite matching the finest work of other contemporary US writers such as Barbara Kingsolver. Moving towards a tragic end, it makes for compelling reading.
