Her grandmother suspects it is linked to the pohaku, an ancient stone that their family was tasked with protecting.In this novel spanning generations across Hawai`i and California, it soon becomes clear that the pohakus story must survive if there is to be any hope of the familys reconciliation with their home, with nature, and with each other.Reminiscent of Yaa Gyasis Homegoing, Min Jin Lees Pachinko, and Tommy Oranges There, There, The Pohaku is an immersive and bold novel about the history, perseverance, and resilience of the Hawaiian people.
