Jess is a Londoner whose relationship with Richard transports her from a Jamaican diaspora, in a city where she easily blends in, to a creaking house on a floodplain where predatory birds hover over fields, eels coil in the river mud, buses run twice a day, neighbors barter honey for cider and no one looks like her. While Jess and Richard settle into the village rhythm, the dramatic arrival of their twin sons recasts the family dynamic, stirring up complicated feelings and questions of belonging. Full of surprises, deeply attuned to the rhythms of language and nature, this lyrical novel with a magical realist strand captures the pain and beauty of life and death as well as the transformational power of changing seasons"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a African Americans $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Domestic fiction $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Racially mixed people $v Fiction. 650 0 $a African Americans. 655 0 $a Domestic fiction. 941 $a 9 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240514010939.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20240504010307.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240503010531.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20240502012341.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20240502011751.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20240502011038.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20240502010359.0 952 $l JCPC145 $d 20240425124659.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20240409013013.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CF1F30E6F63611EE80258AC022ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b JIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
