Drift Latitudes

The Financial Times reviews The Drift Latitudes by Jamal Mahjoub. The review unveils the origins of the title:

Mahjoub’s title alludes to Wide Sargasso Sea, Jean Rhys’s Caribbean back story to Jane Eyre, Charlotte Bronte’s very English novel. The Drift Latitudes makes a metaphor of the Sargasso’s inhospitable confluence of currents that madden the stranded, powerless traveller between different continents.

You see, there's a Brontë side to everything :)
