A riveting, kaleidoscopic debut novel and the beginning of a major career: a novel about race, history, ancestry, love, and time that traces the descendants of two sisters torn apart in eighteenth-century Africa across three hundred years in Ghana and America.
Two half sisters, Effia and Esi, unknown to each other, are born into different villages in eighteenth-century Ghana. Effia is married off to an Englishman and will live in comfort in the palatial rooms of Cape Coast Castle, raising children who will be sent abroad to be educated before returning to the Gold Coast to serve as administrators of the empire. Esi, imprisoned beneath Effia in the Castle's women's dungeon and then shipped off on a boat bound for America, will be sold into slavery. Stretching from the wars of Ghana to slavery and the Civil War in America, from the coal mines in the American South to the Great Migration to twentieth-century Harlem, Yaa Gyasi's novel moves through histories and geographies and captures--with outstanding economy and force-- the troubled spirit of our own nation. She has written a modern masterpiece.
YAA GYASI was born in Ghana and raised in Huntsville, Alabama. She is a graduate of the Iowa Writers' Workshop and lives in Berkeley, California.

粉红泡泡07-01几百年的历史，跨越了七代人的故事，两条线交替，是我读过很有创意的书写角度，每代人虽然也就二十几页的篇幅，但是从上下的承接中，却又能看到她们一生的故事。

NoNo02-10这是一本横跨几百年，讲述家族六代人的历史小说。全书共有两条平行线，一条在非洲，一条在美国，而其中的每个故事哪怕分别作为短篇小说来读也毫不逊色。虽然篇幅有限又是作者的处女座，因此像很多人说的匠气略重，但始终瑕不掩瑜，至少在我读过的数量有限的非洲文学作品中，这部实属上乘之作。
