Beschreibung
The 20th anniversary edition of Edwidge Danticat's groundbreaking debut, now an established classic-revised and with a new introduction by the author, and including extensive bonus materialsAt the age of twelve, Sophie Caco is sent from her impoverished Haitian village to New York to be reunited with a mother she barely remembers. There she discovers secrets that no child should ever know, and a legacy of shame that can be healed only when she returns to Haiti-to the women who first reared her. What ensues is a passionate journey through a landscape charged with the supernatural and scarred by political violence. In her stunning literary debut, Danticat evokes the wonder, terror, and heartache of her native Haiti-and the enduring strength of Haiti's women-with vibrant imagery and narrative grace that bear witness to her people's suffering and courage.
