Per Today, Bush Hager calls this novel an “an epic love story between mothers and daughters,” and it’s not hard to see why. “Banyan Moon is a story about mothers and daughters, love and loss, family secrets, and the power of history. It is a beautifully written and moving novel that explores the complex relationships between cultures and generations,” Bush Hager wrote in her below Instagram post.
