Between 1916 and 1970, six million black Americans left their rural homes in the South for jobs in cities in the North, West, and Midwest in a movement known as The Great Migration. But while this event transformed the complexion of America and provided black people with new economic opportunities, it also disconnected them from their roots, their land, and their sense of identity, argues Morgan Jerkins. In this fascinating and deeply personal exploration, she recreates her ancestors' journeys across America, following the migratory routes they took from Georgia and South Carolina to Louisiana, Oklahoma, and California. Following in their footsteps, Jerkins seeks to understand not only her own past, but the lineage of an entire group of people who have been displaced, disenfranchised, and disrespected throughout our history. Through interviews, photos, and hundreds of pages of transcription, Jerkins braids the loose threads of her family's oral histories, which she was able to trace back 300 years, with the insights and recollections of black people she met along the way--the tissue of black myths, customs, and blood that connect the bones of American history. Incisive and illuminating, Wandering in Strange Lands is a timely and enthralling look at America's past and present, one family's legacy, and a young black woman's life, filtered through her sharp and curious eyes.",2020,"en","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx29gmgdjeq2sk2j6pnnwx1s.jpg?v=fd227ff647","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks-3d\u002F01\u002F01kx29gmfzpb27yqz5w2pmg2ws.png?v=d43bb0553f","L5M5B+-VM0-9~XfQRPae17t6$2R*",0,304,345,"complete",true,false,[21],{"id":22,"slug":23,"name":24,"role":25,"bio":7},"01kx29gmg9grgyj8ppgztgqk1e","morgan-jerkins-gmsb","Morgan Jerkins","author",[27,31,35],{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":19},70,"History","history",{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":19},88,"Biography","biography",{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":19},89,"Memoir","memoir",[],[],[],[],[44],{"id":45,"title":6,"edition_name":7,"format":46,"format_label":47,"page_count":15,"audio_duration_minutes":7,"narrator":7,"publish_date":48,"cover_url":11,"cover_blurhash":13,"isbn_13":49,"asin":7,"publisher":50,"language":10,"quality_score":51,"submission_status":52},"01kx29gmgdjeq2sk2j6pnnwx1s","unknown","Unknown","2020-05-12","9780062873040","Harper",10,"approved",{"summary":7,"pace":54,"complexity":55,"complexity_score":56,"audience":57,"mood":58,"themes":61,"setting_period":7,"content_warnings":62},"slow","dense",7,"adult",[59,60],"reflective","thought-provoking",[],[63,64],"racism","trauma",{"id":45,"title":6,"edition_name":7,"format":46,"format_label":47,"page_count":15,"audio_duration_minutes":7,"publish_date":48,"cover_url":11,"cover_blurhash":13,"isbn_13":49,"asin":7,"publisher":50,"language":10},[],"2026-07-09T01:57:40.000000Z",[69,104,141,165,193,214,239,283,322,357],{"id":70,"slug":71,"title":72,"description":73,"primary_cover_url":74,"cover_blurhash":75,"first_publish_year":76,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":77,"authors":78,"genres":87,"series":99,"enrichment":100},"01kjv3kvc35n7jq7kjxhq5c3v9","a-princess-remembers-ezy2","A princess remembers","This is the memoir of Gayatri Devi, the Maharani of Jaipur.

How does a girl—abandoned by her mother at age two and orphaned at thirteen when her beloved father dies—find her place in the world? This memoir is the story of Nadia creating her own solid ground across countries and continents. I know the struggle of rebuilding your life in an unfamiliar place. While some of you might be familiar with that and some might not, I hope you’ll take as much inspiration and hope from her story as I did.” —MALALA YOUSAFZAI ​ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF 2021 SELECTED BY VULTURE, TIME, ESQUIRE, NPR, AND VOGUE! Young Nadia Owusu followed her father, a United Nations official, from Europe to Africa and back again. Just as she and her family settled into a new home, her father would tell them it was time to say their goodbyes. The instability wrought by Nadia’s nomadic childhood was deepened by family secrets and fractures, both lived and inherited. Her Armenian American mother, who abandoned Nadia when she was two, would periodically reappear, only to vanish again. Her father, a Ghanaian, the great hero of her life, died when she was thirteen. After his passing, Nadia’s stepmother weighed her down with a revelation that was either a bombshell secret or a lie, rife with shaming innuendo. With these and other ruptures, Nadia arrived in New York as a young woman feeling stateless, motherless, and uncertain about her future, yet eager to find her own identity. What followed, however, were periods of depression in which she struggled to hold herself and her siblings together. “A magnificent, complex assessment of selfhood and why it matters” (Elle), Aftershocks depicts the way she hauled herself from the wreckage of her life’s perpetual quaking, the means by which she has finally come to understand that the only ground firm enough to count on is the one written into existence by her own hand. “Full of narrative risk and untrammeled lyricism” (The Washington Post), Aftershocks joins the likes of Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight and William Styron’s Darkness Visible, and does for race identity what Maggie Nelson does for gender identity in The Argonauts.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2ezfaspm4khb55e9hdag3g.jpg?v=abd45b6424","LZM3Tb=Y}qW,:+O=,pt7BoIpwgV[",[618],{"id":619,"slug":620,"name":621},"01kx2ezfanvz9stpf6aa86geg2","nadia-owusu-iafq","Nadia Owusu",[623,624,625],{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":19},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":19},{"id":90,"name":91,"slug":92,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":280,"complexity":7,"audience":57,"mood":628,"themes":629,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[191,59,139],[],{"key":631,"params":632,"works":633},"genre",{"genre":37},[634,655,679,705,724,746],{"id":635,"slug":636,"title":637,"description":638,"primary_cover_url":639,"cover_blurhash":640,"first_publish_year":641,"community_rating_avg":596,"community_rating_count":150,"page_count":642,"authors":643,"genres":648,"series":650,"enrichment":651},"01kx2cadd11k66x27p8sjsykpw","becoming-a-man-3j73","Becoming a Man","A child of the 1950s from a small New England town, \"perfect Paul\" earns straight A's and shines in social and literary pursuits, all the while keeping a secret -- from himself and the rest of the world.

As a child, Madden lived a life of extravagance, from her exclusive private school to her equestrian trophies and designer shoe-brand name. But under the surface was a wild instability. The only child of parents continually battling drug and alcohol addictions, Madden confronted her environment alone. Facing a culture of assault and objectification, she found lifelines in the desperately loving friendships of fatherless girls. With unflinching honesty and lyrical prose, spanning from 1960s Hawai'i to the present-day struggle of a young woman mourning the loss of a father while unearthing truths that reframe her reality, Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls is equal parts eulogy and love letter. It's a story about trauma and forgiveness, about families of blood and affinity, both lost and found, unmade and rebuilt, crooked and beautiful.
