Home Is Not A Country by Safia Elhillo
A spare, lyrical novel-in-verse follows a young Sudanese American woman who returns to Sudan to search for her father after his deportation, unearthing family secrets and fragmented memories as she confronts grief, longing, language and desire; through intimate, poetic vignettes the book examines how migration and memory remap identity and show that home is not a single place but a constellation of people, losses and reclaimed histories.
