Acerca de esta escucha

Penguin presents the unabridged downloadable audiobook edition of Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi, narrated by Dominic Hoffman.

Effia and Esi: two sisters with two very different destinies. One sold into slavery, one a slave trader's wife. The consequences of their fate reverberate through the generations that follow.

Taking us from the Gold Coast of Africa to the cotton-picking plantations of Mississippi, from the missionary schools of Ghana to the dive bars of Harlem, spanning three continents and seven generations, Yaa Gyasi has written a miraculous novel - the intimate, gripping story of a brilliantly vivid cast of characters and, through their lives, the very story of America itself. Epic in its canvas and intimate in its portraits, Homegoing is a searing and profound debut from a masterly new writer.

this book is amazing! I'm happy I decided to listen to it and not read it because the narration was so well done. The stories told were heart breaking and the writing beautiful. I'd recommend it to any adult I'll see!

loved it!

I thought it was a lovely concept, whose execution is far better when read aloud. In terms of story there were a couple of issues:

Firstly, the author at times, particularly towards the end, spells out the purpose of the story, and makes the symbolism too obvious. I wish the author trusted her readers more and allowed us so piece it together.

Secondly, I wish her female protagonists were less conventional and that her interpretation of them was more feminist. Most of their concerns are finding men or with children, something that is a little tired.

However, ultimately it was a lovely read.

Feminist reading and trusting your audience

I loved every bit of Yaa's book. As a reader from Kenya, I identified with my history in ways I have never felt before..

This book gave me purpose

Yaa Gyasi is an incredibly gifted writer and I am so glad that I listened to this book recommended by a dear friend. I’m in awe of how skilfully she handled the difficult subject of slavery and the fullness of the characters she brought forth - I felt as though I knew them, could relate to them and their history by the end of the book.

Incredible!

He didn't bring the story alive. I opted to buy the book and read it and my, it's a great read.

The narrator didn't do the story justice

This novel gripped me from beginning to end. The story weaves a tapestry of lost connections that compels the reader to think of his own past and his own ancestry.

Read this book!
