New York:Holt Rinehart and Winston, (1972). First Edition. hard cover. Very Good/Very Good. New York:Holt Rinehart and Winston. (1972). 1st American edition.  248pp. Hardcover with dust jacket.  A very good, clean copy, inside and out with a very good dustjacket. *From the dustjacket..."The lives of a group of West Indian artists have reached a debilitating climax in contemporary London....Water With Berries is a frightening novel, because its subject is what it means to be a West Indian; the violence of its action, far from catering to a mindless sensationalism, works in the service of fictional imagination that is deeply political."

Description:
Trinidad and Jamaica: Longman Caribbean, 1973. Book. Good. Soft cover. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. Minor lean to the yellowed spine, light shelf wear to the corners and spine ends. Text is clean. '[This book] is about exile and the disintegration of personality. What is it like for the West Indian to experience self-imposed exile in England? With all the force of poetic imagination [the author] offers a highly individual answer. The group of artists whom he describes inhabit a tense and self-enclosed world. Their relations with each other, as well as with those outside the group, are taut, often violent. The past, with its colonial implications, is ever-present. This racial memory provides the main drama with an extraordinary sub-plot or backcloth: a savage reworking of themes from The Tempest, which goes far beyond the plane of realism into the realm of myth.' 250 pages..
