Om denne bog
The Islands follows the lives of Jamaican women - immigrants or the descendants of immigrants - who have relocated all over the world to escape the ghosts of colonialism on what they call the Island. Set in the United States, Jamaica, and Europe, these international stories examine the lives of an uncertain and unsettled cast of characters. In one story, a woman and her husband impulsively leave San Francisco and move to Florida with wild dreams of American reinvention only to unearth the cracks in their marriage. In another, the only Jamaican mother - who is also a touring comedienne - at a prep school feels pressure to volunteer in the school''s International Day. Meanwhile, in a third story, a travel writer finally connects with the mother who once abandoned her.
