‘Wars never end, they just change location.’
An exceptional, thought-provoking YA novel about sisterhood, trauma and the fighting spirit of women, from Zimbabwean author, Blessing Musariri.
When her Mama drops a bombshell, Chiante's world shatters. In Zimbabwe, bloodlines matter, so when Chiante discovers her Baba is not the man she thought he was, she flees. Seeking refuge in a secluded corner of Mutare with her feisty, stylish grandmother, Chiante finds solace in a sisterhood forged by bonds of war. This close-knit community of elders and ex-combatants are living their best lives: singing, dancing, drinking and running a successful fashion-upcycling business. But at the heart of their carefully-built world are secrets no one can give voice to.
As Chiante pieces together the puzzle of her family’s past, she wrestles with how sorrow seeps down the generations, and how hope survives all, obliging us to step up and live life to the full.©2024 Blessing Musariri (P)2024 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Reseñas de la crítica
This book is propelled both by Musariri’s vibrant and compelling characters and her unfailingly beautiful prose... equal parts funny, emotional and reflective in its exploration of family, trauma, coping and the power of communication
A thoughtful, lyrical novel, with a particularly welcome look at the world beyond the Global North
This absorbing, layered YA novel is funny, charming and packs a hefty emotional punch
Extraordinary
This empowering and modern YA novel addresses themes of family, resilience and intergenerational trauma with sparkling prose and unforgettable characters. Highly recommended.
A love letter to the courage of women and a powerful and thought-provoking tale about family
A luscious read... There is excitement and mystery as Chiante begins to piece together a history which is hers and not hers. It is also a story of generational trauma, familial love and co-dependency and how everyone has to find their own way, but they need the support of others to do it
[A] beautifully written novel that explores the complexities of family bonds, both biological and found
An exquisite read
A beautifully written exploration of family tensions and intergenerational relationships set against the backdrop of Zimbabwe’s legacy of war and colonialism... Blessing Musariri’s stunning and engaging prose style [makes] it a perfect choice of class reader for Year 8 or 9.
