Title : Sugar Money Material Type: printed text Authors: Jane HARRIS, Author Publisher: London : Faber & Faber Publication Date: 2018 Pagination: 452 p. ISBN (or other code): 978-0-571-33694-4 Languages : English (eng) Descriptors: 3 Culture:3.40 Literature:National literatures:European literature Class number: 823 English Fiction Abstract: Martinique, 1765: and brothers Emile and Lucien are charged by their French master, Father Cleophas, with a mission. They must return to Grenada, the island they once called home, and smuggle back the 42 slaves claimed by English invaders at the hospital plantation in Fort Royal. While Lucien, barely in his teens, sees the trip as a great adventure, the older and worldlier Emile has no illusions about the dangers they will face. But with no choice other than to obey Cleophas - and sensing the possibility, however remote, of finding his first love Celeste - he sets out with his brother on this 'reckless venture'. With great characters, a superb narrative set up, and language that is witty, bawdy and thrillingly alive, Sugar Money is a novel to treasure. Hold
