On the surface, Stella's British-Ghanaian family home is full of life and happiness. But in reality, her life is governed by her bullying, cruel father and the family is in chaos. Stella looks for order wherever she can find it, creating a complex web of superstitions that she hopes will keep her safe, hunting out magpies every day, touching wood wherever she goes. The only place she is free from these rituals is with her cousins in Ghana. For a while, at least, her tactic seems to work as she navigates university, career and friendship. But old patterns begin to catch up with Stella, and she soon learns that magpies alone can't protect her from heartbreak and danger. Immersive, heart-rending and defiant, One for Sorrow, Two for Joy is a story of courage, endurance, and a young woman determined to thrive against the odds.
