Suspended Sentences: Fictions of Atonement

Viac o knihe

The narrative unfolds through a collection of short stories written by a group of graduating students as punishment for vandalism. Set against the backdrop of newly independent Guyana, these tales serve as a tribute to a classmate now feared dead. Each story not only reveals the teller's identity but also explores the rich tapestry of Guyanese history and its literary evolution, reminiscent of Chaucer’s storytelling style. Through this anthology, the author honors their shared experiences and the cultural landscape of Guyana.
