Publisher's Synopsis
Following the loss of his father in the UK, Kai returns to his homeland in West Africa to reconnect with his father's family. During this first trip back after many years, Kai keeps a diary in which he begins to reflect about his life thus far and how it has been affected by his father's decision to migrate all those years ago. Every step of this trip back to his roots is a piece of the emotional puzzle that he hopes will make him whole. Will he find the reconciliation he is searching for? Will he be able to let go and let home shape him? Will the Atlantic be the inspiration, the counsellor he is longing for? 'Good Morning, Atlantic' is where the poetic musings of belonging meet with the reality and contradiction found within migration and displacement. It is Kai's chronicle, written to bring about a reconnection with the inner self and one's place in the wider world.Yann W. Tanoé
