N1  - I've never read anything quite like Songbirds - a beautifully crafted novel that sits at the intersection of race and class.' Jodi Picoult walks unseen through our world. Cares for our children, cleans our homes. Her voice is unheard. She has a story to tell. Will you listen? Nisha has crossed oceans to give her child a future. By day she cares for Petra's daughter; at night, she mothers her little girl by the light of a phone. Nisha's lover, Yiannis, is a poacher, hunting the tiny songbirds on their way to Africa each winter. His dreams of a new life and marrying Nisha are shattered when she vanishes. No one cares about the disappearance of a domestic worker except Petra and Yiannis. As they search for her, they realise how little they know about Nisha. What they uncover will change them all
