Beneath The Golden Mango Tree by Trish StHill ISBN:978-0-9824852-2-4 Beneath the Golden Mango Tree chronicles the integration process of the West Indian immigrants into American culture through the experience of a young girl who moved from the West Indies to America at the end of the 1970's. For anyone who has taken the immigrant journey, it reminds us of our struggles, our pain and ultimately our triumph. This novel depicts a poignant tale which brings an often forgotten immigrant group - West Indians to the forefront and mingles the West Indian experience with that of the historical tragedy of the Garifuna people of Central America. Through the backdrop of a special friendship, Felicia engulfs us with her humor, her tears and her successes, as we experience her coming of age with full realization and embracing of her ancestral Garifuna heritage. As she blossoms into full womanhood, we revel in her acceptance of the varied shades of life that teaches a lesson in pride, ambition and total acceptance. Beneath The Golden Mango Tree is the first in a dazzling series by Trish StHill which masterfully blends West Indian and Garifuna immigrant stories that saturate our soul with jubilance and victory.
