The Chosen Place, the Timeless People by Paule Marshall
1.0
So.Tedious. I skipped about half of the middle and still got the contours of the futility the author wanted to convey.
It’s set in a formerly English colony, but the playbooks is the same as Haiti.
The white saviors were told nothing changes in Bournehills. It was mostly true. Nothing changes for the locals but the white saviors’ lives irrevocably change before they go home.
Boring with too much minutia and bleak.
It’s done. That’s the nicest thing I can say & now I can move on.
