Previously published as Wrap me in Trees by T. Kenny.
A lyrical story of migration, loss, and the fragile threads of belonging.
Wrap Me in Trees is a sweeping story of love, loss, and resilience told through the fractured lives of the Alejo family. Separated by oceans and decades of hardship, each member carries the weight of migration—its silences, its sacrifices, its unspoken hopes.
Told through letters, fragments, and voices woven across two continents, Lola R. Opeyemi captures the ache of distance and the fragile threads that hold families together. This is a novel about forgiveness and survival, about the longing for home and the courage it takes to build one again.
Lyrical, intimate, and unforgettable, Wrap Me in Trees is both a portrait of the immigrant experience and a meditation on the enduring power of connection.
