But unfortunately, that just wasn't the case. I'd always been different; seeing things that weren't there, shadows that did not exist, feeling like I was always being watched. But I'd never felt more alone than when my parents revealed a painful secret and my boyfriend broke up with me the night before my eighteenth birthday. That's when things got crazy. Seventeen is too young to die. I should know... *This book is recommended for ages 14 and up due to a little bit of kissing, cursing, and mild violence. The Unfortuna...

*WINNER OF THE T. S. ELIOT PRIZE 2015* *WINNER OF THE SUNDAY TIMES / PETERS FRASER + DUNLOP YOUNG WRITER OF THE YEAR AWARD 2015* *SHORTLISTED FOR THE FORWARD PRIZE FOR BEST FIRST COLLECTION 2015* There is a Chinese proverb that says: ‘It is more profitable to raise geese than daughters.’ But geese, like daughters, know the obligation to return home. In her exquisite first collection, Sarah Howe explores a dual heritage, journeying back to Hong Kong in search of her roots. With extraordinary range and power, the poems build into a meditation on hybridity, intermarriage and love – what meaning we find in the world, in art, and in each other. Crossing the bounds of time, race and language, this is an enthralling exploration of self and place, of migration and inheritance, and introduces an unmistakable new voice in British poetry.
