A powerful and poignant novel that spans generations and continents, Homegoing tells the story of two sisters, Effia and Esi, whose lives are forever changed by the transatlantic slave trade. From the Gold Coast of Africa to the cotton-picking plantations of Mississippi, this epic tale weaves together a cast of characters and their struggles, traditions, and lives.
