The Dragon Can't Dance Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

'A landmark, not in the West Indian, but in the contemporary novel.' C.

L. R. James'First-class talent.' The VoiceTrinidad, 1970s.

Calvary Hill - poverty stricken and rubbish-strewn ­­- is home to a community of people who come together during the joyful yearly town Carnival, becoming larger-than-life versions of themselves.

But when it ends, and the strains of day-to-day life grow large, what happens to the peoples' hopes, and the feeling that 'all o' we is one'?With an unforgettable cast of characters, The Dragon Can't Dance is a stunning, classic novel of the desire for identity and belonging, alongside the legacies of a colonial past.
