Losing the plot / Derek Owusu.
Driven by a deep-seated desire to understand his mother's life before he was born, Derek Owusu offers a powerful imagining of her journey. As she moves from Ghana to the UK and navigates parenthood in a strange and often lonely environment, the effects of her displacement are felt across generations. 'Losing the Plot' pieces together the immigrant experience and explores how the stories we share and tell ourselves are just as vital as the ones we don't. From the author of 'That Reminds Me' (a Dewey Diva pick). A Dewey Diva Pick.#diversity.
