Maharaj describes the character and feelings of an immigrant, June 6, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Homer in Flight (Paperback)
Rabindranath Maharaj introduces an interesting story of Homer, an immigrant to Canada from his native country. He explains the bribery and corruption in the government of Trrinidad and expresses the experience of immigration, weather, hardship. prejudice, changes in social structure and racism in Canada. Maharaj describes the character and feelings of a new immigrant. He analizes the martial lifestyle while being unsettled. He also clarifies the character of Wali and his wife because of their honest, positive approach and help for Homer to get a job in a factory. He describes the half portion of his novel more interesting, but the remaining half is slow and un appealing. The end of the novel was beautiful because of the big achievement of Homer to become a writer.
