In 1905, Bessie, a gifted girl from a mining town in South Yorkshire, studies to take the Cambridge exam and escape a life her ancestors never questioned. A century later, her granddaughter Faro returns to that town after a lecture on genetic inheritance and wonders whether she has traveled further than those who never left.
Recommended for readers of literary and historical fiction and book clubs interested in inheritance, memory, and mother-daughter relationships.
