{"product_id":"the-pirates-daughter-margaret-cezair-thompson-9781932961409","title":"The Pirate's Daughter","description":"\"Back in America, little was known of my life in Jamaica,\" wrote Errol Flynn. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn 1946, a storm-wrecked boat carrying Hollywood's most famous swashbuckler shored up on the coast of Jamaica, and the glamorous world of 1940's Hollywood converged with that of a small West Indian society. After a long and storied career on the silver screen, Errol Flynn spent much of the last years of his life on a small island off of Jamaica, throwing parties and sleeping with increasingly younger teenaged girls. Based on those years, The Pirate's Daughter is the story of Ida, a local girl who has an affair with Flynn that produces a daughter, May, who meets her father but once. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSpanning two generations of women whose destinies become inextricably linked with the matinee idol's, this lively novel tells the provocative history of a vanished era, of uncommon kinships, compelling attachments, betrayal and atonement in a paradisal, tropical setting. As adept with Jamaican vernacular as she is at revealing the internal machinations of a fading and bloated matinee idol, Margaret Cezair-Thompson weaves a saga of a mother and daughter finding their way in a nation struggling to rise to the challenge of independence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Margaret Cezair-Thompson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1932961402\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781932961409\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Unbridled Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.26h x 6.40w x 1.34d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/06\/2007 pg. 167\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2007 pg. 126\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/28\/2007 pg. 27\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePeople Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/05\/2007 pg. 51\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMulticultural Review\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2007 pg. 52\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2007 pg. 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2008 pg. 156","brand":"Margaret Cezair-Thompson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43937525694719,"sku":"9781932961409","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_c1e60ed5-6f2c-4019-ac1d-ef11ceee6151.jpg?v=1681430587","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-pirates-daughter-margaret-cezair-thompson-9781932961409","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
