The True History of Paradiseby: Margaret Cezair-Thompson May 01, 2008 |

|
From the point of view of a Jamaican,especially one of my generation,this is a painful book to read.Cezair-Thompson has got the atmosphere right.The resonances are agonisingly accurate,and the dialogue reflects the way we 'talk'.The sense of "Paradise Lost" brings tears to the eyes,and the lost opportunities she depicts strenghten the sense of guilt that the average non-political Jamaican feels today.The brutal violence that almost characterizes Jamaica today,and the love that we feel for this superbly beautiful "Rock", create a schizophrenia which has become a normal part of the Jamaican experience.The negatives: Is there no hope for us ? Is there balm in Gilead?
