The One The Story of how the People of Guyana Avenge the Murder of Their Pasero with Help from Brother Anancy and Sister Buxton

"The One -- The story of how the people of Guyana avenge the murder of their Pasero with help from Brother Anancy and Sister Buxton, is about how that great traditional folk hero, Anancy, takes on the garb of a freedom fighter for justice and against that unique characteristic of Caribbean politics, One-manism. Salkey's decision to adopt Anacy as the appropriate medium together with the use of the nation language of the Caribbean helps remove the constraints imposed by standard English and at the same time inventively stretch our imagination."--Back cover.
