| Description: | Select Guide Rating With their signature prose, at turns muscular and luminous, Shayla Lawson travels the world to explore deeper meanings within love, time, and the self. Through encounters with a gorgeous gondolier in Venice, an ex-husband in The Netherlands, and a lost love on New Year''s Eve in Mexico City, Lawson''s travels bring unexpected wisdom about life in and out of love. They learn the strength of friendships, and the dangers of beauty during a near escape in Egypt. They examine Blackness in post dictatorship Zimbabwe, then take us on a secretive tour of Black freedom movements in Portugal. Through a deeply insightful journey, Lawson leads readers from a castle in France, to a hula hoop competition in Jamaica, to a traditional theater in Tokyo, to a Prince concert in Minnesota, and finally to find liberation on a beach in Bermuda, exploring each location - and their deepest emotions - to the fullest. In the end, they discover how trials of marriage, grief, and missed connections, can lead to self transformation and unimagined new freedoms. |
