Description

Stella tries very hard to be good. She tries not to be sassy, to answer back, to be noticed. Because when Stella's father is angry, it's like lightning and thunder and hailstones. Years later, Stella appears to have it all: a degree, a demanding job as a barrister and a group of friends who always have her back. But underneath the surface, she is haunted by her past. It will take all her grace, courage and love to heal her wounds and break free. Set against the backdrop of London and Ghana, Marie-Claire Amuah's remarkable debut explores intergenerational trauma with compassion and sensitivity. A story of friendship, resilience and hope, this book offers a nuanced portrayal of the ripple effects of domestic violence.
