Kin — Tayari Jones
AN OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB PICK · From the Bestselling Author of An American Marriage
In Kin, Tayari Jones delivers a sweeping and emotionally layered story about friendship, family, motherhood, and the lives that branch out from a shared beginning. Raised side by side in small-town Louisiana, Vernice and Annie are bound together by loss but pulled toward very different futures — one shaped by ambition, education, and privilege, the other by longing, instability, and a relentless search for belonging. When tragedy forces their worlds back into collision years later, both women must confront the choices, wounds, and connections that have defined them. Richly written and deeply compassionate, Kin is a powerful portrait of womanhood, resilience, and the enduring ties that shape a life.
