Beschreibung

<p><strong>An epistolary, fictional account of one woman moving towards happiness in the black community of Colombia's Pacific coast.</strong></p><p>After a long absence, Vel has come home to Chocó - to the Afro-Colombian community, to her family, to the sea. This is where the Pacific meets the Caribbean, where she's establishing herself anew. And the record she keeps is a series of letters to a friend, clarifying for herself where she stands, as she describes that homecoming to another. Vel works to build a literary centre, writing career, and festival with and for the people there. But her return to Chocó is also a claim-staking of her decision to pursue happiness now; an account of her immersion in the towns and rivers and forests she came from; and a redefinition of her relationship to sex and love in real time. And <em>Tidal Waters</em> is a vision of how creating something (for your community, for yourself) is a way of reading and writing your way into a known place and a new self.</p>
