Publisher Comments:
A beautifully written and paced story, sure to capture the imagination of both teenagers and adult readers. Set in Toronto, two girls, Margaret — a second generation West Indian immigrant — and Sulma — fresh up from a joyous life with her grandmother in Tobago to a tense and unhappy relationship with her mother and stepfather — become friends and comrades in various adventures. Review:The novel successfully challenges stereotypical notions of both strong, matriarchal black mothers and of poor, abused powerless black women... a valuable contribution to Caribbean and postcolonial literature.
