From: Marina Budhos <marinab-AT-echonyc.com> Subject: Re: a cry for he*lp Date: Fri, 26 Apr 1996 09:47:47 -0400 (EDT) I know this was an old request of yours--regarding Caribbean women writers--but I thought I'd tell you (without tooting my horn too much) about my novel, House of Waiting. IT may be of interest to you if you are teaching Caribbean themes--I know some people are teaching it in courses. The novel tells the story of an Orthodox Jewish woman who elopes with an Indo-Caribbean man. He in turn is swept into a nationalist movement in then British Guiana (takes place in the 50s) and she is left to try to make a community with his Indian and west Indian friends.
