This book is beautifully written, Yaa Gyasi artfully pulls you in to each era and each character. The story starts with two half sisters in Africa, in present day Ghana. One gets sold into slavery and sent to America and one stays in Africa. Each of their lives and those of their descendents are deeply marked by slavery and it's after effects.
