Synopsis
A BBC Top 100 Novels that Shaped Our World
'Shows the unmistakeable touch of a gifted writer' New Yorker
'Homegoing is an inspiration' - Ta-Nehisi Coates, National Book Award-winning author of Between the World and Me
'It's impossible not to admire the ambition and scope of Homegoing' New York Times
Effia and Esi: two sisters with two very different destinies. One sold into slavery; one a slave trader's wife. The consequences of their fate reverberate through the generations that follow. Taking us from the Gold Coast of Africa to the cotton-picking plantations of Mississippi; from the missionary schools of Ghana to the dive bars of Harlem, spanning three continents and seven generations, Yaa Gyasi has written a miraculous novel - the intimate, gripping story of a brilliantly vivid cast of characters and through their lives the very story of America itself.
Epic in its canvas and intimate in its portraits, Homegoing is a searing and profound debut from a masterly new writer.
Homegoing is one hell of a book... I recommend Homegoing without reservation. Definitely a must read for 2016 - Roxane Gay
Selected for Granta's Best of Young American Novelists 2017
Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for Best First Book
Shortlisted for the PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize for Debut Fiction
Shortlisted for the Beautiful Book Award 2017
