Zusammenfassung:"1979. Topper and Sanya flee to Miami as political violence consumes their native Kingston. But they soon learn that the welcome in America will be far from warm. Trelawny, their youngest son, comes of age in a society which regards him with suspicion, approaching him with the puzzled question 'What are you?' Teir eldest son Delano's longing for a better future for his own children is equalled only by his recklessness in trying to secure it. As both brothers navigate the obstacles littered in their path - an unreliable father, racism, a financial crisis and hurricane Andrew - they find themselves pitted against one another. Will their rivalry be the thing that finally tears their family apart?" (Klappentext)
"A collection of humorous and harrowing linked stories following a Jamaican-American family as they seek stability upon moving to Miami"--
