Mahlet, a young Ethiopian girl with a gift for storytelling, has a
special bond with Yacob, the oldest in her household. When Yacob
tells her stories of how he and the other warriors fought in the
resistance against the Italian occupation of Ethiopia, Mahlet vows
to become the keeper and teller of her family's stories. From the
time of Menelik to the present, Mahlet's long voyage through time
and space links thousands of stories between Africa and Europe.
Intensely personal, this powerful and beautifully narrated novel
tells the story of the Italian occupation of Ethiopia as well as of
others around the globe who have suffered under colonialism or have
been forcibly exiled from their homelands.
