Marie-Elena John's book coverI had to tell you about a local writer who recently released her first novel ‘Unburnable’ (and by ‘local’ I mean Washington D.C!) The book follows female protagonist Lillian’s decision to confront her colorful past at the age of 36. It turns out her mother was a prostitute and her grandmother a serial killer! As Lillian travels back to her homeland, the Caribbean island of Dominica, a suspense-filled story unfolds as Lillian tries to answer the questions surrounding her families circumstances. The book has plenty of vivid sex scenes, but they add meaningful value to the plot and author Marie-Elena John abundantly references African, Caribbean and African-American culture - I certainly recommend it!! By the way, Marie-Elena John is a former Africa-development specialist and originally from Antigua ;)
