Erzulie's Skirt (2006)
-- Finalist 2006 Lambda Literary Award for
Lesbian Debut Fiction; Nominated 2006 Lambda Literary Award for
Lesbian Fiction
Set in the age of urbanization in the Dominican
Republic over the course of several lifetimes, Erzulie's Skirt is a tale of
how women and their families struggle with love, tragedy and destiny. Told
from the perspectives of three women, Erzulie's Skirt takes us from rural
villages and sugar cane plantations to the poor neighborhoods of Santo
Domingo, and through the journey by yola across the sea between the
Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico. It is a compelling love story that
unearths our deep ancestral connections to land, ritual and memory.
