Beschreibung

'An elegantly written and emotionally engrossing work of fiction.' Bernardine Evaristo, Booker Prize-winning author of Girl, Woman, Other

what does family mean to you?

Seeking solitude after a personal tragedy upends his world, artist Chris travels to his mother's homeland, Jamaica, in a bid to find peace.
He expects to spend his time painting alone, coming to terms with his loss and the fractured relationship with his father.
Instead, he discovers a new extended 'family', a community of his very own. Can they help him to become whole again?

'Have you ever not wanted a book to end? Were disappointed that the characters are gone from your life?... Makes you yearn for more.' New York Journal of Books
