Shortlisted for the Booker Prize
Winner of the James Tait Black Memorial Prize for Fiction


Caryl Phillips' ambitious and powerful novel spans two hundred and fifty years of the African diaspora. It tracks two brothers and a sister on their separate journeys through different epochs and continents: one as a missionary to Liberia in the 1830s, one a pioneer on a wagon trail to the American West later that century, and one a GI posted to a Yorkshire village in the Second World War.

'Epic and frequently astonishing'
The Times

'Its resonance continues to deepen'
New York Times
