ksbisnauth's review against another edition
3.0
It took me five years to read this book!
The writing is superb. Fantastic, perfect observational skills at work. He caught the Creolese just so.
BUT there is zero story. I really could have done without part 3. The first two parts alone would have been great. Best part was the second. I liked the history bits best.
Where he lost me is that whole bit about him needing to have an adventure and making Guyana or Guyanese the backdrop of his adventure and self discovery or whatever. Ugh. No, man.
