G. K. Dadzi: The Red in Home, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

In the tradition of Homegoing and Freshwater, The Red in Home is a mythic, braided novella about displacement, inheritance, and the quiet negotiations required to survive when belonging is conditional. Kwame has learned how to live without calling anywhere home, carrying a grief he never learned to name. Leila, bound by love and expectation, reaches toward a future that refuses her silence. Ray moves between past and present, tethered to choices made long before he understood their cost. And from forgotten waters, a strange creature drifts through a world determined to contain what it cannot fully understand. As the fragile order of their lives begins to fracture, memory presses back against survival. What feels personal reveals itself as ancestral. What seems isolated proves connected. Their paths converge beneath unseen forces-histories, myths, and dangerous reckonings. The Red in Home is a literary work told through multiple voices and interwoven timelines, blending grounded realism with mythic elements. It explores how people carry home forward when the world keeps trying to strip it away-and what it costs to claim it anyway.
