Description

Blanche returns to Rwanda after building a life in Bordeaux with her husband and young son. Reuniting with her mother Immaculata, old wounds are reopened for both mother and daughter as they navigate their complicated past. Stokely, caught between two countries, tries to understand where he comes from and where he belongs. Beata Umubyeyi Mairesse's novel explores the lives of three generations torn apart by the genocide against the Tutsis, as they try to reconnect with one another, rebuild broken links and find their place in today's world. Through its nuanced portrayal of family, identity, and belonging, this novel sheds light on a pivotal moment in history and the ongoing impact it has on those who survived.
