Christina Cooke: Broughtupsy, Gebunden

Klappentext

"Tired of not having a place to land, twenty-year-old Akâua flies from Canada to her native Jamaica to reconnect with her estranged sister Tamika. Their younger brother Bryson has recently passed from sickle cell anemia--the same disease that took their mother ten years prior-- and Akâua carries his remains in a small wooden box with the hope of reassembling her family. Over the span of two fateful weeks, Akâua and Tamika visit significant places from their childhood, but time spent with her sister only clarifies how different they are, and how years of living abroad have distanced Akâua rom her home culture."--
