Description
A powerful and poignant memoir about identity and belonging. Born in Hawaii to parents from different cultural backgrounds, Jessica Machado struggles with her sense of place and connection to her homeland. Her experiences of feeling disconnected from the history and traditions of her native land are deeply personal and relatable. As she navigates family turmoil, loss, and self-discovery, Jessica's journey becomes a powerful exploration of what it means to be "local". With interwoven stories of Hawaiian history and traditions, this memoir is a moving narrative about family, grief, and reconnecting with the land that has been left behind.
