Eugene, Oregon : Android Press, [2024]
Format: Book
Description: 113 pages ; 21 cm
A Ghanaian journalist based in the US returns to Ghana with a few friends for the holidays in December 2019. That month is meant to be the climax of the Ghanaian government's year-long "Year of Return" initiative, commemorating 400 years since the first slaves from West Africa arrived in Virginia. The Year of Return takes on a whole new meaning when large numbers of ghosts, formerly enslaved Africans who drowned during the Middle Passage, emerge from the Atlantic Ocean, leading to months of global pandemonium, and concluding with a series of vengeful homicides.
