Reviews

"The Crucifixion is a tightly-written, convincing work in the 'barrack-yard' tradition, full of the lives and blighted hopes of those at the bottom of the heap who are searching for their own, individual escape routes to tunnel through to the light." --Chris Searle, West Indian Digest

"Students of Caribbean literature will certainly be delighted that after such a long hiatus another novel by this talented Trinidadian novelist is in print." --Daryl C Dance, Review of West Indian Literature
