Exotic, imaginative, inspired--a fresh
and brilliant talent spins out a hypnotic
tale of magic and the material world.
Man s lust wars with woman s justice
in a tropical paradise where the greatest
prize is land, and the ultimate law is
obeah. This is the conflict of When Rocks
Dance, a historical novel of such
beguiling sensuality and primal power
that it defies comparison.
The issue of an ill-fated union between
an English planter and a native Trinida-
dian woman, Marina is both blessed and
damned. To the voodoo high priest, Taro,
she is the chosen one, the one for whom
her elder brothers were sacrificed at
birth. To the tribal chief, the Warao, she
is the only mulatto woman bred to wrest
land from a man and own it outright. To
her husband, Antonio, she is the single
source of bope for laying to rest a curse
that had made life a hell of guilt and
thwarted desire.
But to the magical forces pulsing in the
trees, the rocks, the earth around her,
Marina is the vessel of an atavistic
destiny savage, sensuous, violent.
Filled with passion, immanent with the
fear of and faith in obeah, Elizabeth
Nunez-Harrell s When Rocks Dance isa
novel of stunning strength and vitality.
