Seduce

The word has gone out that Seduce is dead, and all the mourners gather on the mythical Church Island in the Caribbean for her wake. In this remarkable debut novel, told in patois prose that is poetic and delicate, profane and slyly funny, Desiree Reynolds has powerful things to say about race, class and the struggle between the sexes.

S-a auzit ca Seduce a murit si toti cei indoliati se aduna pe mitica Insula Bisericii din Caraibe pentru trezirea ei. Toti isi aduc propriile amintiri despre Seduce: fiica ei Glory se roaga pentru salvarea sufletului mamei sale.
