About the book
Acclaimed by Adrienne Rich as "fierce, sensuous . . . a work of great beauty and moral imagination," <em>In Another Place, Not Here</em> tells of two contemporary Caribbean women who find brief refuge in each other on an island in the midst of political uprising. Elizete, dreaming of running to another place to escape the harshness of her daily life on the island, meets Verlia, an urban woman in constant flight who has returned to her island birthplace with hopes of revolution. Their tumultuous story moves between city and island, past and future, fantasy and reality.
