Review
“It is the epiphany, the moment of illumination, which comes out of an ordinary experience.” ?World Literature Today “Dabydeen’s narratives often contain the lyrical consolidations of images that are the mark of a poet…an earnestly searching soul.” — Books in Canada “…spirit, flavour and humour…vivid, vivacious fiction.” — The Ottawa Citizen
Book Description
"With her I immediately sensed that it had to do with who I was, where I'd been born, and where I'd been living these last twenty-five hears. This was thef irst time she was meeting me… 'He's a Brahmin,' she finally said, sternly, as if I wasn't there with them."
There closely observed stories, with their gritty poetic desritions and finely irionic twists, confront Dabydeen's Asian and Caribbean-South American identity with his experience of life in Canada, where he has lived for over three decades.
