Rum Punch And Prejudice
Written
By Raglan Riviere: Rum Punch and Prejudice has a profound
message for everyone genuinely interested in the improvement of
relations between the races: 'The final responsibility for
overcoming racial bigotry lies not with government or society
but with each one of us, as individuals'.
The
message is wrapped in a beautiful, gentle, romantic story in the
equally beautiful and romantic island of Dominica, often
referred to as the Nature Island of the Caribbean. The author
takes you on a journey to Exotica which you will not only enjoy
but also wish to visit.
Book Description
A story of a white man's racial prejudice and its disappearance
under the influence of a black housekeeper, and his teenage
daughter's first romance.
Synopsis
Bruce Knowles, born of English parents in the Caribbean, has
spent most of his life in England, always with a festering
distrust, amounting to hatred of black people. He is forced to
return to Dominica, which he left after discovering his widowed
father in bed with a black servant.
