Go Back How It's Gon' Be

With adulthood looming in the distance, Jahaan and his friends enjoy the
last precious moments of summer vacation. When Jahaan’s father returns
after a year away, the world stops spinning for a moment and lines are
drawn in the sand. A poetic exploration of missed connections and feelings
too great to speak aloud.
