Synopsis:
Saro follows the story of one family’s journey from escaping enslavement, building wealth, and fighting an unjust ruler. Yejide Kilanko, author of A Good Name, praises Campbell for “deftly bring[ing] alive complex history through the unflinching eyes of flawed yet resilient characters who leave us yearning with them for stolen identities and new dreams.”
