Brilliant Book,
This review is from: Brighter Sun (Longman Caribbean Writer Series) (Paperback)
This book is absolutely brilliant. It captures the true multi ethnic fabric of Trinidadian society through the trials of an Indian boy struggling to make it in early 20th century Trinidad. This book brings to light many ethnic and cultural issues that are a now inherent part of Trinidadian life, and is not only a brilliant piece of literature that should be cherished, but a piece of Caribbean history.

By A Customer
This review is from: Brighter Sun (Longman Caribbean Writer Series) (Paperback)
A touching portrait of a community surrounded by dramatic events, and two young people forced into marriage trying to find the ways of adulthood. A well thought out book, with gentle humor and deep tales of anguish.

excellent read,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Brighter Sun (Longman Caribbean Writer Series) (Paperback)
I bought this book because I never had a chance to read when I was in school in Trinidad. I must say, for a first novel, the writer did an amazing job of painting pictures with words. Because it was written in a time before me, I learned something about the history of the island and also about the East Indian culture. A great read. I was so pleased that I bought two more books by the author.
