'If I Survive You' is a major debut, blazing with style and heart, that follows a Jamaican family as they flee to Miami when political violence consumes their home. But America, as the family learns, is far from the promised land. Jonathan Escoffery's voice is as distinct as those of Tommy Orange and Marlon James. His novel unravels what it means to be in between homes and cultures in a world at the mercy of capitalism and white supremacy.
