Description

The Deep by Rivers Solomon and Daveed Diggs is a powerful story inspired by the Hugo Award-nominated song "The Deep" from Clipping. In this Afrofuturist tale, memories hold the key to identity and survival for a community of people who live in the depths of the ocean. Yetu holds the memories of her people, descendants of pregnant African slave women thrown overboard by slave owners. These painful and wonderful memories are destroying her, and she flees to the surface to escape their weight. There, she discovers a world left behind long ago and learns more about her own past than she ever expected. As Yetu navigates this new world, she must confront the expectations and responsibilities that come with remembering her people's history. The Deep is a vividly original story that explores the power of memory and identity in a unique and affecting way.
