In Lose Your Mother, Hartman traces the history of the Atlantic slave trade by recounting a journey she took along a slave route in Ghana. There are no known survivors of Hartman's lineage, no relatives to find. She is a stranger in search of strangers, and this fact leads her into intimate engagements with the people she encounters along the way, and with figures from the past, vividly drama Lose Your Mother - Saidiya Hartman od authora Saidiya Hartman a nakladatelství za skvělé ceny na e-shopu Martinus. cz.
