About The Unsettled By Ayana Mathis
From the moment Ava Carson and her ten-year-old son, Toussaint, arrive at the Glenn Avenue family shelter in Philadelphia in 1985, Ava is already plotting a way out. Having been estranged from her own mother, Dutchess, and their home in Bonaparte, Alabama, Ava is determined to give her son the chance of a better life.
But when Toussaint's father, Cass, reappears, Ava is swept off course by his charisma and determination to fight against systems of racial injustice. As Ava becomes more enmeshed with Cass and the insurgent community he has created in the outskirts of the city, Toussaint begins to sense the danger and threat of violence simmering all around him. He begins to dream of Dutchess and Bonaparte, his home and birthright, but can he find his way there?
