Inhaltsangabe

Of Forgotten Times tells the story of women from two different families - one rich and the other mired in poverty - whose only point in common is their connection to the ruthless dictator of their Caribbean homeland. It is at once a novel of romance, a novel about mothers and daughters, and a novel describing the devastating impact of dictatorship on a small island nation. Rich in historical detail, myth, and legend, Of Forgotten Times explores the elusiveness of romantic love and the struggle of these women to claim their identity and overcome societal repression.
