And, I agree wholeheartedly with the second comment. This novel should be made into a movie.

Ti Marie is one novel that really should be made into a movie! It reminds me of Rice's "Feast of all Saints" except here the mixed race heroine didn't have to go into concubinage - she was too well protected - a testimony to the wholesomeness of the novel and the writer's understanding of giving us gals a break for once! but also to the cleverness of the author who found other ways of exploring the horrors of slavery effectively illustrating that even in the very best of circumstances, 18th Century slavery was horrible!

It was so refreshing to read about people of colour being heros and heroines in a real historical romance which features real history and introduces such a wonderful part of the world. the author's humanistic philosophy is also very welcomed. I wish everyone could read this remarkable book. it's fast paced and a real "can't put downer"Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06577689822378199741noreply@blogger.com
