Love After Love by Ingrid Persaud
4.0
"I had a lot of fun but I don't know if it was truly me. I took what was given and didn't ask for anything more or different."
"God is love!" Love After Love is a heartwarming, tender, and rich story about three dear people in Trinidad and their quests to find and experience...love. Betty, her son Solo, and the glue that holds them together, Mr. Chetan, will stay with me for some time to come. Persaud's lyrical and representative prose immersed me in a world I had not visited before. She told a complex story with a simplicity I appreciated. Her characters struggled and at times prevailed and other times succumbed. Ultimately, Love After Love is a raw and powerful depiction of the trials of the human condition that left my heart full.
