Description
Colonialism, race, myth and political awakening are the themes of this brilliant novel by Jamaican writer Michelle Cliff. Set in Jamaica, England and the US, it combines lyricism and naturalism in its story of a light-skinned woman named Clare whose search for place and self leads her into a world where the dividedness of being a person neither black nor white brings exceptional challenges.
