Winner of the Juniper Prize for Fiction

Barb Matheson doesn't fit in: not on the Standing Rock Reservation where her mother was born; not at the mission in rural Ethiopia where she grew up; and certainly not at the Pennsylvania church where her husband preaches. Expansive and lyrical, Unfollowers is a tale of religious angst, unrequited love, and the upheaval of racial and economic privilege. Equally adrift on both sides of the Atlantic, Barb must negotiate the distance between white America and Africa, between the spirituality of her ancestors and the straight tones of evangelicalism, and between rules and grace. When a former lover crashes her daughter's third birthday party, she's offered the chance to find her way home to Ethiopia, leaving her to choose between a rote life in America and an improvised life abroad.

I enjoy stories that explore themes of "home". The author does a terrific job of character development . Very interesting reading about the dynamic of missionaries living abroad with families and how it effects the lives of their children.
Great read, I recommend !

As a Third Culture Kid myself, this book spoke to me in a way most books don’t. I feel like the author really understands the TCK experience of always being torn between your parents’ homeland and the land in which you grew up and had so many formative experiences. Barbara’s faith journey echoes that of many of us in her generation, especially as the child of missionaries seeing what Western religious imperialism has done to non-Western countries they’ve tried to “save.” Great writing, meaningful insights, and altogether an excellent book.

Poignant look at searching for oneself and for home
