Homegoing

Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi is a sweeping historical novel that traces the lives of two half-sisters born in 18th-century Ghana and the generations that follow them. One sister remains in Africa, while the other is sold into slavery and sent to America. From that point, the novel follows their descendants across centuries, continents, and vastly different lives.

Moving between Ghana and the United States, Homegoing explores the lasting effects of slavery, colonialism, and displacement, while also telling deeply personal stories of love, survival, and identity. Beautifully written and emotionally grounded, this novel connects history with the present in a way that feels both intimate and far-reaching.
