Description
An epic literary debut that follows one family across four centuries, from France to Acadia to the bayous of Southern Louisiana--a poignant examination of belonging, place, and how individual, self-interested acts of moral compromise contribute to cycles of injustice and destruction. In the shifting bayous of coastal Louisiana, on a rapidly disappearing spit of land, generations of Acadians have kept their heads above water.
