Displacement

It makes sense that Hughes thanks Octavia Butler in the end as this book owes a huge debt to Kindred. It's not a bad thing in any way, I think the time travel/displacement really works here as well. I loved the exploration of family trauma as something that isn't explored for various reasons and that Kiku and her mother both had these experiences. I thought the art was great as well - Hughes captured facial expressions really well even within her style.
