3.0 out of 5 stars
A Post-Colonial work about race, oppression, and power...,
By Jenn Gunter (Toronto, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: In Another Place, Not Here (Paperback)
I just finished reading this one for a class. It is a very complex novel that I think would benefit from multiple readings. The novel is extremely discriptive and tells the story of two women from different parts of the world and how their paths ultimately cross. Brand's prose is intricately woven with a combination of confusion, wonder, and anger that emminates through fresh use of voice and perception. The book illustrates the impact of the imperialism and the slave-trade in the Carribean and takes place in both the islands and Ontario. I recomend this one but caution that it is a book that takes effort to really get into it.
