You Alone are Dancing
Description:
Brenda Flanagan's award-winning novel You Alone Are Dancing, set on the fictitious Caribbean island of Santabella, depicts the challenges that beset a young couple and their neighbors. (An) elegantly defiant account of the ravages wrought by corporate imperialism on what might be any disenfranchised island people.... Flanagan's prose never abandons the languorous rhythms of island life. One of the greatest pleasures in this novel is its wonderful dialogue, which creates a constant thrumming music beneath the political events that provide its surface tensions.
