  1. Pleasantview By Celeste Mohammed

    Pleasantview By Celeste Mohammed   Winner of the 2022 OCM Bocas Prize for Fiction. Shortlisted for the Society of Authors' McKitterick Prize 2022.Finalist of the 2022 Firecracker Award in Fiction. Come during election season, and see how one candidate sets out to slaughter endangered turtles - just for fun. Or come on the day the other candidate beats his "outside-woman," so badly she ends up losing their baby. Then come on the night of the political rally, where this grieving woman exacts a very public revenge. Stay a while, and see how this single event has a trajectory far beyond the lives of the immediate actors, with often tragic and heartbreaking consequences.Written in a remarkable combination of Standard English and Trinidad Creole, Pleasantview showcases the entrenched political, racial, and class dichotomies of life in Trinidad: the generosity (yet cruelty) of the average Trini; the sense of optimism (and yet, despair) which permeates everyday interaction; and the musicality of Caribbean creole (kriol) expression that masks an ingrained and frequently violent patriarchy.Merging the vibrancy and darkness of recent Caribbean writers such as Ingrid Persaud and Claire Adam with the linguistic experimentation of Marlon James's A Brief History of Seven Killings, Pleasantview is a landmark work in international fiction.  DETAILS : • Pages: 320• Publisher: Jacaranda books• Imprint: Jacaranda Books• Publication Date: 9th September 2021• Trim Size: 160 x 236 mm• ISBN: 9781913090890• Format: Trade binding  AUTHOR BIO: Celeste has been a lawyer since 2001 but she has been telling stories all her life.
