Effia & Esi: two sisters with two very different destinies...
One sold into slavery; one a slave trader's wife. The consequences of their fate reverberate through the generations that follow.
Taking us from the Gold Coast of Africa to the cotton-picking plantations of Mississippi; from the missionary schools of Ghana to the dive bars of Harlem, spanning three continents & seven generations, Yaa Gyasi has written a miraculous novel
- the intimate, gripping story of a brilliantly vivid cast of characters & through their lives the very story of America itself.
Epic in its canvas & intimate in its portraits, Homegoing is a searing & profound debut from a masterly new writer.
