Their younger brother Bryson has recently passed from sickle cell anemia--the same disease that took their mother ten years prior-- and Akúa carries his remains in a small wooden box with the hope of reassembling her family. Over the span of two fateful weeks, Akúa and Tamika visit significant places from their childhood, but time spent with her sister only clarifies how different they are, and how years of living abroad have distanced Akúa rom her home culture."-- $c From publisher's description. 650 0 $a Estranged families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Siblings $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Lesbians $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Jamaica $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft. 941 $a 3 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20240409012639.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20240409011900.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240206010645.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8968C77EC4BD11EEB847D6DA21ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
