Following her New York Times bestselling debut Fifty Words for Rain, Asha Lemmie's next sweeping and evocative novel introduces a determined young woman’s search for the larger-than-life literary figure she believes to be her father.

When tragedy forces Delphine Auber, an aspiring writer on the cusp of adulthood, from her home in postwar Paris, she seizes the opportunity to embark on the journey she's long dreamed of: finding the father she has never known. But her quest—spanning from Paris to New York’s Harlem, to Havana and Key West—is complicated by the fact that she believes him to be famed luminary Ernest Hemingway, a man just as elusive as he is iconic. She desperately yearns for his approval, as both a daughter and a writer, convinced that he holds the key to who she's truly meant to be. But what will happen if she is wrong, or if her real story falls outside of the legend of her parentage that she’s revered all her life?

The Wildest Sun is a dazzling, unexpected, and transportive story about coming into adulthood—from escaping our pasts, to the stories we tell ourselves, to the ambition that drives us—as we seek to find out who we are.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A touching coming-of-age tale.... A strong story with an engaging protagonist.” —Kirkus

"The Wildest Sun is an epic quest for identity and a tender search for selfhood as a woman and a writer. Asha Lemmie is a master of the heart and with her we meet the vulnerable Delphine as she searches for the larger-than-life man who might be her father. Through decades and across continents, The Wildest Sun is an inspiring and compelling novel. Lemmie’s insightful observations into the writers life with its hopes, fears, and creativity is the lifeblood of this courageous journey for the truth.” —Patti Callahan Henry, New York Times Bestselling author of The Secret Book of Flora Lea

“The Wildest Sun is a gripping portrait of the artist as a young woman that lays bare the complexities of family trauma, fraught inheritance, and creative ambition. While chasing the famous father whom she views as a lodestar across oceans and time in the post-WWII years, the protagonist Delphine Auber Hemingway must ultimately learn that she, too, shines. With a deeply satisfying ending revealing of life’s core truths, The Wildest Sun shows how even amid personal loss and political tumult, art can be a life companion, loyal to the end.” —Tiya Miles, National Book Award Winner and New York Times bestselling author of All That She Carried and The Cherokee Rose

A beautiful bildungsroman with a central female character, who journeys between three very different cultures (French, American, Cuban), in search of her own identity, redemption and acceptance, this book presents youth and maturity, friendship and love, beyond tradițional social boundaries and an unusually winding path from childhood trauma to learning and healing.
Starting in the aftermath of WWII, the action brilliantly focuses on the individuals and their personal struggles, which unfold on the background of large social turmoil, describing the agency they hold over their own destinies, despite doubts, feelings of guilt or inadequacy, confusion about the future.
Very hopeful ending.

Imagine growing up believing you're Ernest Hemingway's daughter. And imagine searching for him, plotting how to meet him, and wondering if he remembers your mother from his time in Paris. Will he recognize you as his child? This is a fast "read" It isn't complicated, just the sort of book you'd listen to on a trip or at the beach. I recommend it for listeners who want something light and unusual, a break from WWII dual timelines or long, complicated family sagas.

delightful, quirky story!
