A love letter to a family restaurant and the ache of belonging. In my review of The Waves Take You Home I follow Vi from Caminito in Barranquilla to Brooklyn, Emilia's ghostly presence and the novel set in Colombia with gentle magical realism. I reflect on migration, family recipes and saving a beloved restaurant.

This blog beckons you to explore the bittersweet complexities of family, migration, and the lingering ghosts of home, all while navigating the delicate dance of belonging across cultures. It’s a reminder that in the heart of a restaurant, life unfolds—rich, layered, and beautifully messy.
