Coup de coeur (Literature), by Niamh

A snappy and witty novel broaching the difficult subjects of racial privilege and allyship. Emira Tucker is a young Black woman hired by the career-focused Alix as a nanny for her toddler. When Emira is accused of having kidnapped said toddler in an incident at a local grocery shop, Alix takes matters into her own hands. Exploring difficult work, relationship, and family dynamics, this novel is a clever debut that will invoke real empathy for the characters involved.

When Emira is apprehended at a supermarket for ‘kidnapping’ the white child she’s actually babysitting, it sets off an explosive chain of events. Her employer Alix, a feminist blogger with the best of intentions, resolves to make things right.

But Emira herself is aimless, broke and wary of Alix’s desire to help. When a surprising connection emerges between the two women, it sends them on a crash course that will upend everything they think they know – about themselves, each other, and the messy dynamics of privilege.
