Her name is Marie Elena John.<br />I am sure you will love the book as it an engrossing historical novel that takes place in Dominica in both the present time and the early 1900's.<br />I look forward to your blog on Unburnable!<br />L.

Thank you for sharing. What a great privilege to meet the author's family. I felt all the warmth you shared with them in this post.

I loved your story and will go back and read the older posts. I have an adopted daughter from Dominica when I was working. She was beautiful. She would send me letters and tell me about her life. I got her through a group, but forgot her name. I so wanted a child from Haiti, but Haiti does not take part in the Christian group I worked with. I spent some time in Belize in missionary work and fell in love with that area.
