How does the title manifest in the novel? How do the alternating narratives form a “duet,” and what do June and Tyrell each bring to the narrative’s messages about unhoused people and the true nature of home?
The novel includes a list of the musical pieces that the story features. Listen to one of the songs and discuss how its emotional tone corresponds to the scene in which it is mentioned.
The book does not include a reading list, but the characters in the story read many real-life novels, such as Jerry Craft’s New Kid and Mildred D. Taylor’s Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry. Read one of these stories and explain its relevance to A Duet for Home.
