Sommy moves from Lagos, Nigeria to graduate school in the United States plagued by guilt for leaving her brother behind in a time of need. When she meets Bryan, a biracial American estranged from his Nigerian father, the two develop a closeness that feels like romance.
During summer break, Sommy and Bryan visit Lagos, where Sommy hopes to reconcile with her brother and Bryan to connect with his father. But this city will have its way with them; a sudden catastrophe throws their plans into disarray, forcing Sommy to confront her true loyalties.
The Tiny Things Are Heavier is “a brave, winning novel” (Sarah Thankam Mathews), a captivating coming-of-age and a daring portrait of immigration, self-determination, young love, and family devotion.
