Guyanese historical fiction. A coming of age novel and a story about Caribbean boyhood, with "whodunit" and found family themes.
Also, a great 1) a repository of classic film and Caribbean literature and 2) glossary and painting of Guyanese culture. Culturally immersive and reminds me of The Lost Love Songs of Boysie Singh by Ingrid Persaud for its "slice-of-life"-ness. The cover is apt.
A narration by Guyanese natives would elevate this work even more.
Would make a great book club pick.
