Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Blue Basin Island is the final resting spot of formerly enslaved Africans whose souls have flown from Earthnot to heaven or purgatory but toward freedom and a new life. Lucille, the islands seamstress, takes two forms. She lives among the inhabitants in human form and, along with the evil-repelling blue of the houses, her divine form protects people from the violence of the their former lives. Yet, even there, outside of time, the souls are not totally insulated from the world in which they were enslaved. Each time a Black person anywhere is harmed, a piece of Blue Basin disintegrates: an earthquake leaves hundreds of thousands dead, and bricks crumble on the island; when police kill a Black child asleep in her bed, the blue paint on homes throughout the island drips and then runs from the walls. Lucille must hold the island together, but she struggles to juggle the responsibility of ensuring everyones safety while also seeking and losing her own private love. Grounding the story in African folklore and dipping into the rich literary tradition around African people with the power of flight, ZoE Gadegbeku visualizes the destination at the end of the flight and the new life that awaits them. This debut novel by a Ghanaian writer answers the question, "When the souls of enslaved Black people flew away to freedom, where did they go?" with a queer Black femme take on traditional African religions and Vodou highlighting the interdependence of magic and freedom. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
