WINNER OF THE 2019 SCOTIABANK GILLER PRIZE An internationally
bestselling debut novel: an energetically told, funny and moving
book about how strangers become family. Reproduction tells a
crooked love story which takes strange, winding paths shaped by
community, family and fleeting interactions that leave an inedible
imprint. Felicia, a nineteen-year-old West Indian student, and
Edgar, an impetuous heir of a wealthy German family, meet when
their ailing mothers are assigned the same hospital room. An
odd-couple relationship blooms between Edgar and Felicia, ripe with
miscommunications and reprisals for perceived and real offences
that have some unexpected results. Fast-forward, their son
Armistice is a teenager fixated on a variety of get-rich-quick
schemes that are as comic as they are indicative of the immigrant
son's fear of falling through the cracks. When Edgar re-enters
Felicia's life at a typically inopportune moment, the book's
exhilarating final act is set in the motion and Reproduction is
revealed.
