| Summary |
"A multifaceted global memoir reflecting on Bee's adoption from Cameroon, her childhood experiences with public housing and homelessness in rural France, Lyon, and London, her immigration as a teen to Nevada, and eventually rethinking her devotion to evangelical Christianity at Harvard Law. Home Bound touches on constructions of home, and the issues of identity that can complicate it, including class, race, education, faith, and nationality."-- Provided by publisher. |
