'Is America She Gone' by Beverly-Ann Scott
Her style is real, refreshing, compelling and totally absorbing. For those who haven't yet read it, this her second novel, i dare say, is also a 'must read'.
We chatted with Trinidadian author, Dr Beverly-Ann Scott, about her second novel at the Nalis, St James Library this morning. Happy i was there.

Hello Gillena. I love your haiku. I can feel the way your fingers curve around that handle... and what an opportunity to meet with this author. I love hearing an author speak. Then forever more I hear their voice when I read their words. Hope you are having a great weekend!
