Tree of Oblivion

Sheina was born from a surrogate mother. For Joel and Lily Rose, a typical American family, this was the only way to have a desired child. And to live happily with loving parents, only the girl, like her biological mother, is black skin. Growing up, Shein begins to think about his origin, about his roots - and about what to be color in America. She has a long and thorny path to self -knowledge and gaining her identity.

This novel is as multifaceted and diverse as strong and uncompromising, it has little space for love, tenderness and compassion.
In this bloody fiery world, where it seems impossible to avoid your own past, it has not yet come for forgiveness.
