The Namesake
by Jhumpa Lahiri
Not a therapy book, but the best portrait of second-generation immigration experience I know. I recommend it when clients struggle to articulate the in-between feeling.
My Grandmother's Hands
by Resmaa Menakem
On racialized trauma and the body. Essential for understanding intergenerational trauma from a somatic perspective.
