Narration Toward Books A Brighter Sun

I read A Brighter Sun years ago, I think this re-read is exactly what I needed. There is something magical about reading about a place you currently reside at and I think that is what I loved most about this book. Sam Selvon's A Brighter Sun follows the main character Tiger Baboolal, an Indian man from the rural part of Trinidad. Tiger gets married and through his marriage he is given a plot of land with $200TTD to start his life with his wife. Tiger and his wife moves to San Juan an up and coming community 4 miles away from the capital Port of Spain. In San Juan Tiger tries to fit in, learn what it means to be a man and more importantly tries to navigate the changing world around him. Sam Selvon thrust us into a period of history where Trinidad and Tobago is still trying to figure out herself. She is caught between pre- Independence, the influx of Americans to her shore and the ranging war in Europe. Historically, a lot is happening and Selvon uses that to tell a story and show us how these things impacts our main character. If you are looking for an in-depth look into live in Trinidad and Tobago during the 1930s, this is definitely a book you want to pick up. If you are looking for a memorable character- trust me, you wont forget Tiger. A must read Trini book for me. I read this for the #ReadCaribbean challenge.
