Description
Red Island House by Andrea Lee is a travel epic that opens a window on the mysterious African island of Madagascar. Through the eyes of Shay, a Black American heroine, this powerful tale explores the dangers of life and love in paradise. When Shay marries Senna, an Italian businessman, she embarks on a journey that takes her far beyond their home in Milan to an idyllic stretch of beach in Madagascar. Shay becomes the reluctant mistress of a sprawling household, caught between her privileged American upbringing and her connection to the continent of her ancestors. As she navigates this remote African country, she must confront the wild beauty and lingering colonial sins that both captivate and destroy foreigners. This mesmerizing story evokes the works of Isabel Allende and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. With its extraordinary literary voice and lush descriptions, Red Island House showcases a unique perspective on travel and self-discovery in a mysterious and unknown world.
