"As you turn the pages of this novel and get lost in Dana's story, allow yourself to relive the horrors of slavery. . . . Allow yourself to know the pain of our nation's past."--Tomi Adeyemi, New York Times bestseller and Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author, from the new foreword This brand new package for young adults includes a redesigned interior for better readability, specially commissioned cover art by Carlos Fama and spot gloss on cover elements "I lost an arm on my last trip home.
