Summary:

 

Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi is a powerful, multigenerational novel that traces the parallel paths of two half-sisters, Effia and Esi, and their descendants across three hundred years. Effia marries a British colonizer in 18th-century Ghana and remains on the Gold Coast, while Esi is enslaved and shipped to America. Each chapter explores the lives of their descendants, alternating between Ghana and the United States. The novel covers themes like slavery, colonialism, family, trauma, and identity, highlighting the lasting effects of oppression on both sides of the Atlantic.
