Description
The story of two half-sisters, Effia and Esi, is one of separation, slavery, and legacy. Born in eighteenth-century Ghana, their lives take different paths as they navigate the complexities of colonialism and the transatlantic slave trade.
Effia's descendants are woven into the fabric of Ghanaian history, while Esi's children are sold into slavery in America, leaving a lasting impact on generations to come. This sweeping novel explores the intertwined lives of two families across three continents and 300 years, shedding light on the enduring legacy of slavery.
Written with tremendous power and sweep, Homegoing is a powerful exploration of identity, family, and the unbreakable bonds that connect us all.
