Chameleon by Jane Bryce, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Connecting Africa to the Caribbean through vibrant, sensuous descriptions, this collection of stories follows a young white girl who is plunged into a puzzling awareness of the complexities of race relations.

Told in a touching, first-person voice, this collection of elegant and poignant stories captures the anima of Africa and the Caribbean. | Chameleon by Jane Bryce, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
