Description

 							 
  
  A novel of breathtaking sweep and
emotional power that traces three hundred years in Ghana and along the way also becomes a truly great American novel.
Extraordinary for its exquisite language, its implacable sorrow, its soaring beauty, and for its monumental portrait of
the forces that shape families and nations, Homegoing heralds the arrival of a major new voice in contemporary
fiction.
              
  Two half-sisters, Effia and Esi, are born into
different villages in eighteenth-century Ghana. Effia is married off to an Englishman and lives in comfort in the
palatial rooms of Cape Coast Castle. Unbeknownst to Effia, her sister, Esi, is imprisoned beneath her in the
castle’s dungeons, sold with thousands of others into the Gold Coast’s booming slave trade, and shipped
off to America, where her children and grandchildren will be raised in slavery. One thread of Homegoing follows
Effia’s descendants through centuries of warfare in Ghana, as the Fante and Asante nations wrestle with the slave
trade and British colonization. The other thread follows Esi and her children into America. From the plantations of the
South to the Civil War and the Great Migration, from the coal mines of Pratt City, Alabama, to the jazz clubs and dope
houses of twentieth-century Harlem, right up through the present day, Homegoing makes history visceral, and captures,
with singular and stunning immediacy, how the memory of captivity came to be inscribed in the soul of a nation. 
 
            
  Generation after generation, Yaa Gyasi’s magisterial first
novel sets the fate of the individual against the obliterating movements of time, delivering unforgettable characters
whose lives were shaped by historical forces beyond their control. Homegoing is a tremendous reading experience, not to
be missed, by an astonishingly gifted young writer.
  
  
  PRAISE
  “Gyasi’s
characters are so fully realized, so elegantly carved—very often I found myself longing to hear more. Craft is
essential given the task Gyasi sets for herself—drawing not just a lineage of two sisters, but two related
peoples. Gyasi is deeply concerned with the sin of selling humans on Africans, not Europeans. But she does not scold.
She does not excuse. And she does not romanticize. The black Americans she follows are not overly virtuous victims. 
Sin comes in all forms, from selling people to abandoning children.  I think I needed to read a book like this to
remember what is possible.  I think I needed to remember what happens when you pair a gifted literary mind to an epic
task. Homegoing is an inspiration.” —Ta-Nehisi Coates, National Book Award-winning author of Between the
World and Me
  
  “Homegoing is a remarkable feat—a novel at once epic and intimate, capturing
the moral weight of history as it bears down on individual struggles, hopes, and fears. A tremendous
debut.”  —Phil Klay, National Book Award-winning author of Redeployment
  
  
“The
hypnotic debut novel by Yaa Gyasi, a stirringly gifted writer . . . magical . . . the great, aching gift of the novel is
that it offers, in its own way, the very thing that enslavement denied its descendants: the possibility of imagining the
connection between the broken threads of their origins.” —Isabel Wilkerson, The New York Times Book
Review
  
  

“The brilliance of this structure, in which we know more than the characters
do about the fate of their parents and children, pays homage to the vast scope of slavery without losing sight of its
private devastation . . . . [Toni Morrison’s] influence is palpable in Gyasi’s historicity and lyricism;
she shares Morrison’s uncanny ability to crystalize, in a single event, slavery’s moral and emotional
fallout. What is uniquely Gyasi’s is her ability to connect it so explicitly to the present day: No novel has
better illustrated the way in which racism became institutionalized in this country.” —Megan
O’Grady, Vogue
  
  

“Gyasi echoes [James] Baldwin’s understanding of a
common culture marked by both yearning and pain, in which black people can confront each other across differences and
reach a political understanding about what unites them. What distinguishes Gyasi’s presentation of this idea is
its scope: She does not present us with a single moment, but rather delivers a multigenerational saga in which two
branches of a family, separated by slavery and time, emerge from the murk of history in a romantic embrace . . . . .
HOMEGOING is a reminder of the tenacity of fathers and mothers who struggle to keep their kin alive. The novel succeeds
when it retrieves individual lives from the oblivion mandated by racism and spins the story of the family’s
struggle to survive.” —Amitava Kumar, Bookforum
 
  
  

“Tremendous…spectacular…[HOMEGOING is] essential reading from a young writer whose stellar
instincts, sturdy craftsmanship and penetrating wisdom seem likely to continue apace — much to our good fortune
as readers.” —SF Chronicle
  
  “Heart-wrenching . . . . Gyasi’s unsentimental
prose, her vibrant characters and her rich settings keep the pages turning no matter how mournful the plot . . . . The
horror of being present at the wrong place and the wrong time, whether black or white, is handled poignantly . . . . The
chapters change narrators effortlessly and smoothly transition between time periods . . . . I kept expecting a Henry
Louis Gates ‘Find Your Roots’ TV show . . . . Yaa Gyasi’s assured Homegoing is a panorama of
splendid faces.” —Soniah Kamal, Atlanta Journal-Constitution
  
  
“A remarkable
achievement, marking the arrival of a powerful new voice in fiction.” —Kelsey Ronan, St. Louis
Post-Dispatch
  
  

“Gyasi is a deeply empathetic writer, and each of the novel’s 14
chapters is a savvy character portrait that reveals the impact of racism from multiple perspectives . . . . A promising
debut that’s awake to emotional, political, and cultural tensions across time and continents.”
—Kirkus Reviews, March 15, 2016
  
  “Homegoing is an epic novel in every sense of the word
— spanning three centuries, Homegoing is a sweeping account of two half-sisters in 18th-century Ghana and
the lives of their many generations of descendants in America. A stunning, unforgettable account of family, history, and
racism, Homegoing is an ambitious work that lives up to the hype.” —Jarry Lee, Buzzfeed
  

 “Gyasi gives voice, and an empathetic ear, to the ensuing seven generations of flawed and deeply human
descendants, creating a patchwork mastery of historical fiction.” —Cotton Codinha, Elle Magazine 
 

  “[A] commanding debut . . . will stay with you long after you’ve finished reading. When people talk
about all the things fiction can teach its readers, they’re talking about books like this.” —Steph
Opitz, Marie Claire 
  
  “Striking… With racial inequality at the forefront of America’s
consciousness, Homegoing  is a reminder of slavery’s rippling repercussions, not only in America, Gyasi
points out, but around the world.” —Departures Magazine

“An important, riveting
page-turner filled with beautiful prose, Homegoing shoots for the moon and lands right on it.”
 
—Isaac Fitzgerald, Buzzfeed
  
  

“Each chapter is filled with so much emotion and
depth and tackles so many different topics…. I didn’t want to put it down.”
—BookRiot


  
  “Lyric and versatile . . .  [Yaa Gyasi] writes with authority
about history and pulls her readers deep into her characters’ lives through the force of her empathetic
imagination . . . striking . . . [a] strong debut novel.” —Maureen Corrigan, NPR’s Fresh Air
