A tender, funny look into Liv Little’s hotly anticipated new novel. Talking to Channel 4 broadcaster Symeon Brown, the author and gal-dem founder invites us on a road-trip into memory, mortality and the fierce love between a daughter and her father.
Jalissa and her dad aren’t close, but when he invites her to Jamaica, his homeland, for the first time, she says yes. She’s running from heartbreak and a loss of her own; he’s running out of time. As they navigate tangled family roots, old wounds open and long-held silences begin to break. They’re both trying to outrun something – can they face the past, reckon with the present and reimagine what comes next?
