Inhaltsangabe

A powerful tale of womanhood, friendship, family secrets and the Black British experience, set between present-day England and mid-90s Ghana.

On the cusp of thirty, Ghanaian Londoner Whitney Appiah was born with a special gift. The massage therapist can physically sense where her clients' trauma lies and heal them. But Whitney has no idea that she too is suffering. Tragic events from her youth have left a terrible, unseen mark.

When a dangerous encounter with the man she's dating triggers a wave of fragmented recollections, Whitney embarks on a journey to reclaim her memories and the truth that is buried deep in her early childhood in Kumasi, Ghana.

Spanning three decades, told through the viewpoints of Whitney, her aunts - Gloria and Aretha - and their house help - Maame Serwaa - The Rest of You explores what happens when we try to resolve the mysteries of our past.
