    These beautifully crafted stories will introduce readers to the fiction of one of our literary bright lights Lorna Goodison, the internationally renowned poet and award-winning author of the memoir From Harvey River. In sensuous language textured with the cadences of Creole speech, these stories vividly evoke a world where pride, injustice, love, and unexpected changes of fortune leave their mark but cannot extinguish the human spirit. When her past lover returns to Jamaica with his Irish bride, a successful businesswoman must contend with her old flame's renewed courtship. A well-known chanteuse with humble beginnings tells a young female reporter the tale of her life's great turnaround. In the Pushcart Prize-winning story ';By Love Possessed,' Goodison reveals the melancholy and resilience of a woman whose illusions about her dream man come to a disturbing and abrupt end.With warm humour, empathy, and an unsentimental and perceptive eye for the foibles of human relationships, Goodison immerses us into the lives of an unforgettable community of people as they face challenges both intensely private and universally recognizable.From the Hardcover edition.
