The Ventriloquist's Tale

Pauline Melville

From Shelf: The 1998 Women's Prize for Fiction Longlist

Pauline Melville conjures pictures of the savannah, forest and city life in South America where love is often trumped by disaster. This novel embraces nearly a century, when laughter is never far from tragedy. It is a parable of miscegenation and racial exclusiveness, of nature defying culture.
