Cassandra Williams is twelve when her little brother, Wayne, goes missing in an accident. As C grows older, she sees her brother everywhere: in bistros, airplane aisles, subway cars. Here is her brother's face, the light in his eyes, the way he seems to recognize her, too. But it can't be, of course. Or can it? Then one day, in another accident, she meets a man both mysterious and familiar, a man who is also searching for someone and for his own place in the world. His name is Wayne. In an enthralling narrative that defies expectations and blurs the line between our dreams and our waking lives (Oprah Daily), Namwali Serpell's remarkable novel is a bold exploration of memory one that twists unexpectedly into a story of mistaken identity, double consciousness, and the wishful and sometimes willful longing for reunion with those we love the most.
