Leaving by Plane Swimming Back Underwater

Beschreibung

"A delight" says Nobel-prize winning poet Derek Walcott. Lawrence Scott explores a Caribbean world of yearnings and memory, of escape and return underpinned by the disturbing tensions wrought by religion, race, sexuality and crime. Sensuous and evocative, Scott's prose has a glorious lightness of touch and tone that exhilarates and illuminates.
