Requests:  0 Summary:  "A collection of humorous and harrowing linked stories following a Jamaican-American family as they seek stability upon moving to Miami"-- In the 1970s, Topper and Sanya flee to Miami as political violence consumes their native Kingston. But America, as the couple and their two children learn, is far from the promised land. Excluded from society as Black immigrants, the family pushes on through Hurricane Andrew and later the 2008 recession, living in a house so cursed that the pet fish launches itself out of its own tank rather than stay. But even as things fall apart, the family remains motivated, often to its own detriment, by what their younger son, Trelawny, calls "the exquisite, racking compulsion to survive."   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Aiea Public Library Acquisitions --- On Order   in Processing   Add Copy to MyList Hanapepe Public Library Adult Fiction Escoffery Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Escoffery Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Fiction Escoffery Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Lanai P/S Library Adult Fiction Escoffery Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Fiction Escoffery Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Fiction Escoffery Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Fiction Escoffery Checked out 05/17/2024 Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Escoffery Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Pahala P/S Library Adult Fiction Escoffery Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
