Chameleon and Other Stories
Language: English
Published by Peepal Tree Press Ltd, GB, 2007
ISBN 10: 1845230418 ISBN 13: 9781845230418
Paperback. Condition: New. When a young white child growing up in Tanzania discovers why her family's African gardener so dislikes the chameleon she spots in a tree, she is plunged into a puzzled awareness of the complexities of race, colour and difference.As the 'I' of the stories grows into adulthood in Nigeria, she too becomes a chameleon of sorts, one thing when she is with her Nigerian friends, another with the white tribe when she can no longer resist the lure of the scarce luxuries to be had at the British embassy. When the 'I' makes the crossing from Nigeria to the Caribbean, she discovers that it is not only people who are chameleons. Osun, the Yoruba orisha has also made the journey, a little outwardly changed, but inwardly the same in Trinidadian and Cuban manifestations.In the earlier stories, the 'I' has a childhood innocence that, in the comment of the distinguished poet UA Fanthorpe, 'sees all the better for not understanding'. With increasing awareness comes a sense of being an outsider in almost all situations, though in playing mas' in the Trinidad carnival, there is a glimpse of the transcendence of belonging to the collective. Whether as the child trying to understand her parents, their Muslim servant's sense of the sacred, or the 'incomprehensible prohibitions' of a colonial childhood, there is a constant tension between the sense of separateness and the desire for belonging. And though each of the stories is a first person narrative, what stands out in Bryce's careful, elegant writing is a very concrete sense of the reality and autonomy of other voices, other views.

Chameleon and Other Stories (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Peepal Tree Press Ltd, Yorkshire, 2007
ISBN 10: 1845230418 ISBN 13: 9781845230418
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. When a young white child discovers why her family's African gardener so dislikes the chameleon she spots in a tree, she is plunged into a puzzled awareness of the complexities of race, colour and difference. As the 'I' of the stories grows into adulthood in Nigeria, she too becomes a chameleon of sorts, one thing when she is with her Nigerian friends, another with the white tribe when she can no longer resist the lure of the scarce luxuries to be had at the British embassy.

And though each of the stories is a first person narrative, what stands out in Bryce's careful, elegant writing is a very concrete sense of the reality and autonomy of other voices, other views. Presents stories that explore a Nigerian childhood and adolescence and the tensions between the pleasures of being an outsider and the desire to belong. These stories make the crossing to the Caribbean with an awareness of how much of Africa was already there.

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
