Description
This is the story of one woman's life; that of Gwyneth Cuffie, a seemingly ordinary woman: teacher, lover of children and music, and pillar of her community. Beautifully written and deeply compassionate, the novel follows Gwynneth's life, as she charts her own path through the turbulent times of her island and struggle against colonialism.
