A moving tale of betrayal, family, and belonging in the world 1960, Durban, South Africa: A Jewish father tells Jo-Anne, his ten-year-old daughter, "There'll be a bloody revolution here: revenge, massacres, a blood bath. Don't think of this place as home. We'll have to leave and find home someplace else." His words leave her feeling frightened, uprooted, and longing for a place to call home. She loves and trusts her father more than anyone in the world until the unimaginable happens: He betrays her. Jo-Anne represses the betrayal and moves on with her life and career. Years later, she discovers a letter her father had written long ago, confronting her with an agonizing truth she had refused to face, and deepening her confusion about her identity. Seeking clarity, she reexamines her roots, a journey that leads her to explore her Jewish grandfathers who fled pogroms in Russia and Lithuania. How did their quests for home play out in her life? At last, she has an epiphany that leads her to find where she truly belongs. Somewhere I Belong is a compelling memoir with universal themes of love, betrayal, self-discovery, and finding home.
