Lessons from a Spirited
Caribbean Woman

Revolutionary mother and lover, feminist and social activist, Joan French, now harvests her under-life in a fascinating poetic memoir, Remembering the Rainbow. These poems present a rainbow of past experiences covering her political activism, love and relationships, motherhood, depression, the comfort of the familiar, and discomforting features of the return home to residence in Jamaica in 2007, after residing elsewhere for over 15 years.
