A chance encounter at Kennedy Airport with her ex-husband, Saliou Wade, takes Magdalene and their now adult daughter, Khadi, on a visit to him and his new family in Senegal. Magdalene is understandably nervous about the return, remembering the pain of the mutual cultural incomprehension-she is a St Lucian-that ended the marriage almost twenty years before; but Khadi refuses to go without her.-Back Cover.
