Notes

Description
The chosen place is Bourneville, a remote, devastated part of a Caribbean island; the timeless people are its inhabitants, black, poor, inextricably linked to their past enslavement. The advance team for an ambitious American research project arrives, and the tense, ambivalent relationships that evolve dramatize the vicissitudes of power.
