Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi follows the stories of the descendants of two half-sisters, Esi and Effia, who know nothing of each other despite residing in the same castle at one point. However, Effie resided in the castle’s residence as the wife of a British solder, while Esi was held in the slave dungeons below and later sold into slavery. Homegoing takes us on a journey through the generations that follow the sisters, chronicling the impact of slavery, racism, and colonialism on each member.
