A debut of remarkable differentiation: through the tests of one memorable family, Ayana Mathis explains to the story of the children of the fantastic Migration, a tale of love and bitterness and the promise of a fresh America. In 1923, 15-year-old Hattie Shepherd flees Georgia and settles in Philadelphia, longing for the opportunity at a better life. Instead, she marries a guy who'll bring her nothing but disappointment and watches helplessly as her firstborn twins succumb to an illness a few pennies could have prevented. Hattie provides beginning to nine more children, whom she increases with grit and mettle and not an ounce of the tenderness they desire. She vows to get ready them for the calamitous difficulty they will definitely face in their later lives, to meet a global that won't love them. Captured here in 12 luminous narrative threads, their lives notify the story of a mother's monumental courage and the journey of a land. Beautiful and destructive, Ayana Mathis's The Twelve Tribes of Hattie is glorious, harrowing, unexpectedly uplifting, and blazing with life.
