Transcendent Kingdom is a powerful, raw, intimate, deeply layered novel about a Ghanaian family in Alabama and Yaa Gyasi's follow-up to her acclaimed national best seller Homegoing. Coming from a family ravaged by depression, addiction and grief, Gifty is a fifth-year neuroscience candidate determined to discover the scientific basis for the suffering she sees all around by also exploring the realms of faith, religion and love.
“A book of blazing brilliance...of profound scientific and spiritual reflection that recalls the works of Richard Powers and Marilynne Robinson...A double helix of wisdom and rage twists through the quiet lines...Thank God, we have this remarkable novel,” says Ron Charles of The Washington Post.
Gyasi's novel was on the New York Times editor’s choice list for recommended new fiction books in Sept. 2020. Here are some other novels on the list:
- The Bass Rock by Evie Wyld
- Homeland Elegies by Ayad Akhtar
- Out of Mesopotamia by Salar Abdoh
- The Space Between Worlds by Micaiah Johnson
- The Glass Kingdom: A Novel by Lawrence Osborne
