Description
Abandoned by her mother when she was just two years old, Nadia Owusu and her siblings follow their father, a UN official, across the world. Nadia’s roots in Ghana, Armenia, and America—along with a meandering, nomadic childhood—leave her struggling to define herself. When Nadia is just thirteen years old, her father dies, leaving her to drift precariously toward adulthood.
In this globetrotting memoir, Nadia tries to make sense of a traumatic past that reverberates into her adulthood.
