Miracle at St. Anna
'I envy those about to discover Miracle at St. Anna for the first time' Bonnie Garmus, author of Lessons in Chemistry
'Searingly, soaringly beautiful' Baltimore Sun
Towards the end of World War Two, four soldiers from the Army's Negro 92nd Division find themselves separated from their unit behind enemy lines.
Risking their lives for a country in which they are treated with less respect than the enemy they're fighting, they discover humanity in the small Tuscan village of St. Anna di Stazzema - in the peasants who shelter them, in the unspoken affection of an orphaned child.
Now a major film directed by Spike Lee, Miracle at St. Anna is an unforgettable tale of courage and redemption set in Second World War Italy, from internationally bestselling novelist James McBride.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
