ABOUT THE BOOK:
A MAGNIFICENT NEW NOVEL FROM THE BESTSELLING, AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR OF AN AMERICAN MARRIAGE—TAYARI JONES HAS WRITTEN AN UNFORGETTABLE NOVEL THAT SPARKLES WITH WIT AND INTELLIGENCE AND DEEP FEELING ABOUT TWO LIFELONG FRIENDS WHOSE WORLDS CONVERGE AFTER MANY YEARS APART IN THE FACE OF A DEVASTATING TRAGEDY.

Vernice and Annie, two motherless daughters raised in Honeysuckle, Louisiana, have been best friends and neighbors since earliest childhood, but are fated to live starkly different lives. Raised by a fierce aunt determined to give her a stable home in the wake of her mother’s death, Vernice leaves Honeysuckle at eighteen for Spelman College, where she joins a sisterhood of powerfully connected Black women and marries into an affluent family. Annie, abandoned by her dissolute mother as a child, and fixated on the idea of finding her and filling the bottomless hole left by her absence, sets off on a journey that will take her into a world of peril and adversity, as well as love and adventure, and culminate in a battle for her life.
A novel about mothers and daughters, about friendship and sisterhood, and the complexities of being a woman in the American South, Kin is an exuberant, emotionally rich, unforgettable work from one of the brightest and most irresistible voices in contemporary fiction.

TAYARI JONES is the author of four novels, most recently An American Marriage, which was an Oprah’s Book Club Selection and also appeared on Barack Obama’s summer reading list and his year-end roundup. It won the Women’s Prize for Fiction (formerly known as the Orange Prize), Aspen Words Prize, and an NAACP Image Award and has been published in two dozen countries. Jones lives in Atlanta.
