1690s, Tidewater, Virginia. Bless, born into slavery and taken by her masters to toil in the house, faces her mother's fury, learning that cruelty can come from any side. David, an enslaved child of a freed father, dreams of the promise of liberty made to him. Jack, an impoverished Scots-Irish boy, sails to America to be indentured but, in the hellish crossing, finds his hopes fracturing. Yet, somehow, they all will stake a claim to love. Hurston-Wright Award winner Princess Joy L. Perry tells us a previously unheard story-one in which characters must carve out choices from the narrowest of circumstances and confront heartrending questions: How far would you go to protect your children from enslavement? How to create a lasting family after being torn from your own? What to value more: a hard-won opportunity or your humanity? This Here Is Love is an unforgettable story from an astonishing new voice.
