Beating with the pulse of a long-withheld confession and peppered with lilting patois, Patsy gives voice to a woman who looks to America for the opportunity to love whomever she chooses, bravely putting herself first. But to survive as an undocumented immigrant, Patsy is forced to work as a nanny, while back in Jamaica her daughter, Tru, ironically struggles to understand why she was left behind. Greeted with international critical acclaim from readers who, at last, saw themselves represented in Patsy, this astonishing novel “fills a literary void with compassion, complexity and tenderness” (Joshunda Sanders, Time), offering up a vital portrait of the chasms between selfhood and motherhood, the American dream and reality.Book Patsy: A Novel Review :
Patsy's daughter endured. She survived. She is the light in this somewhat dark novel : a novel of abuse and sadness and a glimmer of hope.Many women leave their children to migrate, They feel they have no choice, and, sometimes they don't. They are running away from one kind of hardship or another. These left behind children are, in Jamaica, called 'barrel children'. They are left with family or friends; with promises from the mother to 'send money'. The mothers mostly do try, but when the barrels come, the 'so called 'fam/friend' gives their own children the best from the barrel, and the money sent goes, guess where. Many suffer all types of abuses. It is speculated that much of the violence in Jamaica is a result of boys without mothers (where are the fathers)! They are the lured into a life of violence. The gang becomes the family.The novel seems preoccupied with sex. It is a rocky and dangerous road, when sex and its cousin love rule the head. Sense seem to disappear, leaving sorrow and regret, as Patsy learns.I am a Jamaican woman, and a legal immigrant. I understand what Pasty went through. You have to be an immigrant to truly understand the painful loneliness of moving to a strange land and leaving family and all that is familiar behind. I came alone at 20 years old to NYC. Just thinking of it brings a pain. But, we stick it; we believe this life will be better. Sometimes, it is, sometimes, it is not : dreams quickly crumble under the weight of reality.It is a good read, the dialect at times was distracting, but brought authenticity to the characters. A glossary for readers who many not know the dialect would have been helpful and perhaps expose the book to a wider audience. (there speaks a Librarian). Still, if needs be, one can go to search engine 'Bing' and get an explanation. I hope the book sells nuff copies.Thank you. This is my favorite new book that I’ve read released far this year in 2019. A marvelous novel, heart wrenching and brave. The writing is amazing and there are passages and sentences that took my breath away. It is the book that I’d been waiting for this year. A refreshing and beautiful story...and I knew it from the first page. Don’t Miss This Book!
