Title: Dead Woman Pickney Author: Yvonne Shorter Brown Narrator: Ahdri Zhina Mandiela Format: mp3 Length: 15 hrs and 13 mins Release date: 10-21-24 Ratings: Not rated yet Genres: Caribbean & West Indies Publisher's Summary: Dead Woman Pickney chronicles Yvonne Shorter Brown’s life growing up in Jamaica between 1943 and 1965 and teaching in Canada from 1969. Told with stridency and humour, the stories include both personal experience and history. Taking up the haunting memories of childhood, along with persistent racial marginalization of Black people, both globally and in Canada, the author sets out to construct a narrative that at once explains her own origins in the former slave society of Jamaica and traces the outsider status of Africa and its peoples.
