With its epic scope and lush lyricism, Yvonne Adhiambo Owuor evokes a fascinating kind of beauty in this dangerous, chaotic world and its ever shifting oceans and trade. A transcendent story of love and adventure unfolds.
Ayaana's journey is one of the inexorable need for shelter in a dangerous world, where the boundaries between home and exile are constantly tested.
