Book Description Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good+. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Canadian Edition. 224 pp, 8vo (8 3/4" H). Boldly inscribed and dated by author on title page. "In sight of green sugar-cane fields and the sea, the Rum Shop and the Tailor Shop are awash with buckshee rum and male talk. While Sarge (known to have broken an innocent man's legs with his truncheon) holds forth about blasted 'properganda', Seabert the Tailor has ambitions for a seat in Parliament and his eye on a big car. As a young man, Michael William Wilberforce Thorne - 'Boy' to the villagers - learns about life from these vibrant characters. Coming of age in the Barbados of the 1950s, he is both horrified and fascinated by the political scheming that surrounds him. After spending several years at a Canadian university on a scholarship, Boy returns to his country with a sharper awareness of its people and possibilities. When an election is called and this tiny, colonial island hovers on the brink of a new political dawn, he is treated as a political saviour, the first of a new breed. This rich novel, at once serious and hilariously funny, gives a wonderfully exuberant picture of life in Barbados in the early 1950s, painted with unflagging humour and zest." Dust jacket has very light rubbing, very light wrinkling at top of spine and flap-folds. Inscribed By Author. Seller Inventory # 20394
