‘A magical storyteller’ Daily Mail
It is 18th century Saint Domingue, and Tété never knew her parents. All she knows is that her mother was a slave, and that her white father’s identity will forever remain a mystery.
As a child she is sold to the plantation-owner Toulouse Valmorain, and finds herself subjected to his unwanted attentions. Still, in spite of everything, she finds community and comfort among the other slaves. And as a revolution gains momentum and opportunities surface, she can’t help but wonder: will freedom, one day, be in reach?
Powerful and moving, Island Beneath the Sea is a story of courage and hope, even in the cruellest of circumstances.©2010 Isabel Allende
