She comes from a broken home, abandoned by her father, and riven by mental illness and tragedy. Gifty is a Ghanaian-American research neuroscientist, specialising in reward-seeking behaviour. * I would like to thank Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to review this book. ![]() ![]() ![]() But it is also a vivid portrait of the profound strength of the human spirit and the enduring power of love.Īfter his father's heart attack in 1984, Peter Godwin began a series of pilgrimages back to Zimbabwe, the land of his birth, from Manhattan, where he now lives.
