The son of Ethiopian immigrants seeks to understand a hidden family history and uncovers a past colored by unexpected loss, addiction, and the enduring emotional pull toward home.After abandoning his oncepromising career as a journalist in search of a new life in Paris, Mamush meets Hannaha photographer whose way of seeing the world shows him the possibility of finding not only love but family. Now, five years later, with his marriage to Hannah on the verge of collapse, he returns to the closeknit immigrant Ethiopian community of Washington, DC, that defined his childhood. At its center is Mamushs stoic, implacable mother, and Samuel, the largerthanlife father figure whose ceaseless charm and humor have always served as a cover for a harder, more troubling truth. But on the same day that Mamush arrives home in Washington, Samuel is found dead in his garage.With Hannah and their twoyearold son back in Paris, Mamush sets out on an unexpected journey across America in search of answers to questions he'd been told never to ask. As he does so, he begins to understand that perhaps the only chance he has of saving his family and making it back home is to confront not only the unresolved mystery around Samuels life and death, but his own troubled memories, and the years spent masking them. Breathtaking, commanding, unforgettable work from one of Americas most prodigiously gifted novelists.
