This won so many awards and follows the lives of 2 half-sisters who were born in 18th century Ghana. One was sold into slavery and one was married to a British slaver. It sounds like a heavy topic, but it's beautifully written and engaging and a total page-turner. It comes across as a very honest narrative and I've been learning a lot about the culture of the tribes, the political climate of that time, and the slave trade. Some of the traditions and cultures of the tribes remind me of various traditions and beliefs of Chinese tribes too, both in old China and modern day.
