The Salt Roads by Nalo Hopkinson

5.0

if for no other reason than the use of the line: "No $%^^ babies" i really enjoyed this book . i am a bit confused as to why the spine said SCIENCE FICTION. there was very little science about it. i reckon the author's other works are actually sci-fi; because this book was full of loa, social climbing, promisicuity, bisexuality, and revolution of the personal & societal variety. i can dig it. it was well written. the themes tied together perfectly. characters were excellent. historical references timely (emancipation/earthquake) being that haiti occupies 80% of the text. could not find anything negative to say or feel about it.
