- River sing me home / by Shearer, Eleanor,author.;
"Rare. Moving. Powerful. This beautiful, page-turning and redemptive story of a mother's gripping journey across the Caribbean to find her stolen children in the aftermath of slavery marks the arrival of a remarkable new talent. Her search begins with an ending ... The master of the Providence plantation in Barbados gathers his slaves and announces the king has decreed an end to slavery. As of the following day, the Emancipation Act of 1834 will come into effect. The cries of joy fall silent when he announces that they are no longer his slaves; they are now his apprentices. No one can leave. They must work for him for another six years. Freedom is just another name for the life they have always lived. So Rachel runs. Away from Providence, she begins a desperate search to find her children-the five who survived birth and were sold. Are any of them still alive? Rachel has to know. The grueling, dangerous journey takes her from Barbados then, by river, deep into the forest of British Guiana and finally across the sea to Trinidad. She is driven on by the certainty that a mother cannot be truly free without knowing what has become of her children, even if the answer is more than she can bear. These are the stories of Mary Grace, Micah, Thomas Augustus, Cherry Jane and Mercy. But above all this is the story of Rachel and the extraordinary lengths to which a mother will go to find her children ... and her freedom"--- Subjects: Historical fiction.; Novels.; Mother and child; Slaves;

- Naniki / by Kempadoo, Oonya,author.;
Includes bibliographical references.Through luminescent light, ancestral paths, and a Caribbean spirit-inflected world, Naniki explores the musings and inner workings of the deep blue - the Caribbean Sea - and its shape-shifting sea beings. As the sea mirrors the light from the blue skies, and its depths are exposed by daggers of sunlight, so too Naniki reveals and honours the Indigenous roots of the Caribbean and its people, whose destiny is tied to the sea, the vessel of collective memory. Set in the Caribbean Basin, Naniki is a futuristic cross-cultural tale imbued with magic realism. Co-protagonists Amana and Skelele are made of water and air, their essence intertwined with Taino and African ancestry. They evolved as elemental beings of the Anthropocene, and shape-shifting with their naniki (active spirits) or animal avatars, they begin an archipelagic journey to see the strange future they dreamed of. Until devastation erupts. Tasked by their elders to go back in time to the source of the First People's knowledge, they must surmount historical and mythological challenges alike. How can they navigate and overcome to regenerate themselves, their love, their islands, and their seas?- Subjects: Fantasy fiction.; Novels.; Indigenous peoples; Shapeshifting; Spirits; Time travel;
