She invites us to journey with her round the island's mountains, rivers, forests and coasts where we encounter the flora and fauna, the calypsonians, local parlance and steel bands, Trinidad's glories and sorrows, and the cosmopolitan \u003ci\u003e'callalloo'\u003c\/i\u003e of nationalities that comprises its population. Beckett's verse, which expresses a deep affection for her chosen home, comes across with depth and conviction. IERE ultimately is a love song, one we are invited to share in with all its lyricism and complexity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sarah Beckett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798325066221\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/17\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.32d","brand":"Sarah Beckett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48153999114495,"sku":"9798325066221","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4c37c417-0f59-43f2-9952-3ccc5321734b.jpg?v=1770787212","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/iere-sarah-beckett-9798325066221","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
