Beschrijving

Bol When Ayaan, a Swedish-Somali journalist, begins tracing an old family legend about a blue bowl, two keys, and an ancestor said to have carried a giraffe to the court of a Chinese emperor, she expects a story.Instead, she finds names, debts, vanished rooms and carefully guarded silences stretching from Mogadishu to London - and back toward a fifteenth-century Indian Ocean voyage.Moving between Sa'id's journey in 1417 and Ayaan's present-day search through archives, family testimony and inherited objects, The Names That Travel follows what happens when family memory meets the limits of documentary proof.A literary historical mystery about migration, inheritance, and the stories that survive when evidence cannot tell us everything.
