Description du livre Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. From the British-West Indian novelist who is rapidly emerging as the bard of the African diaspora comes a haunting work about the final passagethe exodus of black West Indians from their impoverished islands to the uncertain opportunities of England. In her village of St. Patricks, Leila Preston has no prospects, a young son, and a husband, Michael, who seems to prefer the company of his mistress. So when her ailing mother travels to England for medical care, Leila decides to follow her. As Caryl Phillips follows the Prestons outward voyageand their bewildered attempt to find a home in a country whose rooming houses post signs announcing No vacancies for colouredshe produces a tragicomic portrait of hope and dislocation. The Final Passage is a novel rich in language, acute in its grasp of character, and unforgettable in its vision of the colonial legacy. Like Isabel Allende and Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Phillips writes of times so heady and chaotic and of characters so compelling that time moves as if guided by the moon and dreams.Los Angeles Times Book Review As nineteen-year-old Leila surveys her island home from the ship that will carry her, her husband, and baby to England, she contemplates the Caribbean life of the 1950s that is chaotic, hand-to-mouth, and offers no way but out.
