_______________ 'Kerry Young is a stand-alone talent in the new
emerging generation of writers from the Caribbean region. Her
stories are gritty and also funny and very real' - Monique Roffey
_______________ A story of revolution and oppression, privilege and
poverty, love and betrayal from the critically acclaimed author of
Pao Fay Wong is caught between worlds. Her father is a Chinese
immigrant who conjured a fortune from nothing; her African heritage
mother grew up on a plantation and now reigns over their mansion in
Lady Musgrave Road. But her father's Chinatown haunts are out of
bounds and the airy rooms of their home are filled with her
mother's uncontrollable rages - rages against which Fay rebels as
she grows into a headstrong woman. As she tries to escape the
restraints of her privileged upbringing, Fay's eyes are opened to a
Jamaica she was never meant to see. And when her mother decides
that she must marry the racketeer Yang Pao, she finds herself on a
journey that will lead to sacrifice and betrayal.
