About the book
Edwidge Danticat's debut novel intertwines the stories of a mother and her daughter, separated by Haitian exile and reunited by bonds of traumatic heritage and family love. Through poetic prose, Danticat explores how political violence inscribes itself on bodies and memories, passing from generation to generation.
A profoundly human work that captures the emotional resonances of diaspora and the strength needed to remain connected across distance and suffering.
