Take Me to Mon Repos - Paperback

by Travis Weekes (Author), Allan Weekes (Translator)

Set in 1794, on the French colony of Saint Lucia, Take Me to Mon Repos tells the story of a stand-off between Bwigan, a runaway slave actively on a mission to burn down the plantations; and the owners of the plantation where Bernelle, Bwigan's love interest, is enslaved. The plantation owners: Garnier, a curt and aloof French Royalist and his wife Catherine, a poet and abolitionist, try to use Bernelle in their plan to capture Bwigan and turn him over to the British.
