E. C. Farinha always felt like she was only good at one thing, telling stories. Writing made her feel worthy and getting lost in a book made her feel safe. She was born and raised in South Africa but she dreamt of living in a faraway land, which was unfortunately fictional. She was therefore determined to create her own. She started writing as a teenager and never looked back. When tragedy hit in 2020 this book was born. Going Home is her first novel.
