Description

Red Dust Road is a heart-stopping story of identity, belonging and love, written with novelistic and poetic flair. Jackie Kay's journey is one of unexpected twists and deep emotions, as she uncovers the truth about her past and her place in the world. From a young age, Kay realized that her skin was a different colour from that of her beloved parents, setting her on a path of discovery about her heritage and her family's history. With warmth and candour, Kay shares her story of tracing her roots and finding her birth parents, her Highland mother and Nigerian father. Part of the Picador Collection, this remarkable book is a testament to the power of love and the complexities of human identity.
