Summary

This Is Us'... meets 'Coming to America'... via South-East London! Is identity more than skin deep? Does it matter if you're BLACK or WHITE? All his life he wanted answers. Antony never knew what happened to his mother when she left him as a baby, he grew up not knowing whom he was as a black child in a white family - never knowing the answer to his question - who am I? After an unexpected emotional meltdown opens up a childhood wound, Antony makes it his mission to get those answers he wanted all his life from the only one who can, his missing birth mother. Will he find her and if so will it lead to him finding the missing pieces to his identity that eluded him for thirty years? Coconut Prince is the author's exciting debut book, sharing personal experiences in the memoir genre, exploring themes of loss, faith, race, and identity through a blend of poignant recollections and comedic reflections told candidly. You won't regret joining this quest across continents and life hurdles in this raw and honest coming-of-age story
