Yaa gyasi book5/22/2023 ![]() ![]() Extraordinary for its exquisite language, its implacable sorrow, its soaring beauty, and for its monumental portrait of the forces that shape families and nations, Homegoing heralds the arrival of a major new voice in contemporary fiction. ~~GOODREADS DESCRIPTION~~Ī novel of breathtaking sweep and emotional power that traces three hundred years in Ghana and along the way also becomes a truly great American novel. I have to admit that I like the meaning of the title of the book much more than the book itself. I searched online & saw this: The title (Homegoing) is taken from an old African-American belief that death allowed an enslaved person’s spirit to travel back to Africa. I suppose the name of the book Homegoing itself is the purpose of the book. I was expecting so much from it, but like many times before, my expectations lead to disappointment. Hi Readers! I recently read Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi. ![]()
