These Ghosts are Family, by Maisy Card
Staff Pick
From the front cover to the last page--I loved this book! Maisy Card’s debut novel is a series of interconnected stories about a family that can trace its oldest ancestor to a slave, Florence, on a sugar plantation in Jamaica. Florence is hanged for trying to poison her master. In 2020, some of the descendants have settled in Brooklyn, one even marries a descendent of the old master. There aren’t ghosts on every page but they do make appearances and the past and the present are clearly connected.
