Told from a multiplicity of perspectives, The True History of Paradise captures the grace, beauty and brutality that are indelible parts of the Jamican experience. The story of three women born into a divided, troubled paradise becomes the history of a country, of generations of wanderers coming together in a place that can neither sustain not be sustained by them, but which will shape them forever. Epic in scope, scored in a rich, lyrical patrois, it is a powerful and moving debut by a gifted author.
