Tide Running

A Novel

Edición de la obra Tide running

"Cliff and Ossi have grown up in Plymouth on the island of Tobago, their lives turning on the axis of small-town life: young men fooling outside Masta Barbar's shop, gangsta rap blasting; Baywatch and Oprey Winfree interrupted by frantic street calls from the preachers; a morning's fishing - and sex.". "One day they watch the arrival of a couple - Bella, a Caribbean woman, and Peter, an Englishman - and their child at a luxurious house overlooking the ocean. The couple invites Cliff into their home and lives, and in that cool "flim-style" house, the harsh, bright, brittle life of urban Plymouth is kept briefly at bay, desires obscuring differences in class and race. But then things begin to go wrong - money vanishes, the couple's car disappears - and those differences are brought suddenly to light, raising unsettling questions about relationships, wealth, and responsibility."--BOOK JACKET.
