A Distant Shore by Caryl Phillips
This text was eccentric in its timeline and characters. The story was told well though Solomon’s story was much more interesting than Dorothy’s.
The forlorn divorce school teacher with life regrets fails to enthrall the reader or provide sympathy. Solomon’s life, his adventure to England and within England enthralled the reader and I found myself frustrated whenever I had to go back and read about Dorothy.
