Shades of Grey (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781845230920)

As Stephenson comes closer to his girlfriend, Thea, he has to acknowledge that his past is a blank. He has never known his father, not lived with his mother, and cannot remember what his grandparents looked like. The Lights on the Hill, the first of two interdependent short novels in Shades of Grey, is a moving and inward portrait of a man, blown along by circumstance, trying to construct his own story. Another Place, Another Time, the second short novel, goes back to the character of Derek Charles, who appears as a returning islander in St. Omer's first novel A Room on the Hill. Here, almost a decade earlier, St. Omer explores the circumstances in which the scholarship boy makes the decision to separate himself from his family and friends. This treasured Caribbean modern classic is brought back into print for the first time, with a rigorous introduction that adds context to the book.
