Jacket design by Fred Marcellino. keywords: Literature Caribbean Black Trinidad . FROM THE PUBLISHER - This is the dazzling, exuberant, hilarious story of Johnny Sebastian Alexander Caesar Octavian de Paria. Despite the aphrodisiac climate of Trinidad, despite oceans of rum, tons of spices, scores of carnivals, and hordes of ardent young ladies, Johnny is still resolutely a virgin at the age of twenty-one. It is also the story of Aunt Jocasta, a woman of great dignity and Himalayan proportions; Professor Wolfgang von Buffus zu Damnitz, the world's leading authority on urinometrics and everything else; Joe Caldeira, a Portuguese bartender by occupation, a sweetman in his leisure; and Marcellin Gros-Caucaud, a magnificent African of awesome sexual power. In the town of San Fernando, Trinidad, from a swaying hammock under a graceful palm to the smoky interior of the Black Cat Bar, life is joyous for Johnny and his friends. But not for long. A crime of passion, a failed business venture, a venomous snake, and they are all forced to leave paradise. Their chosen route of escape is a sea voyage to England. On the high seas, too, despite the persistent advances of a radish-faced Englishwoman whose rigidity of spine extends to her upper lip, Johnny still preserves his virginity. The ocean liner docks in transit at Madeira, and by grand design Johnny and his entourage converge upon a whorehouse, where they are presented to the cream of local society: a Catholic prelate, a chief rabbi, the prefect of police, a pimp. Now the action really gets rolling. ON LEAVING PARADISE is an elegantly written fable, a pungent satire of colonialism, a sunlit mockery of manners, and above all a grand celebration of youth and sex, lone, and life. inventory #25280.

hardcover. 1st edition. New York. 1961. Harcourt Brace & Company. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket With A Small Piece Missing From the Top Spine. 212 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Ellen Raskin. keywords: Literature Caribbean Trinidad Black. FROM THE PUBLISHER - When Mrs. Napoleon Walker, the wife of a wealthy Negro doctor in Port of Spain, selects guests for her famous parties, she uses only one measuring rod - the color of their skins. When Mervyn Herrick, a brilliant Negro lawyer, contemplates a Trinidad governed by the Trinidadians, he wishes the British would rule forever. When Dr. Ivor Griffiths, the eccentric Welsh physician, thinks of the island's British population, he wishes them all at the bottom of the sea. And when the Governor's aide-de-camp, who has been having an affair with the Governor's wife, tells his superior of the alliance, the old boy secretly relishes the thought of what is in store for his young subordinate. Frank Hercules combines these characters with humor and insight in his highly readable novel. To him Trinidad is its people, and his compassion for their ambitions, shortcomings, and human foibles is evident in every situation he creates. In WHERE THE HUMMINGBIRD FLIES, the West Indian island of Trinidad ceases to be the paradise it is often pictured, and becomes Trinidad as it really is - an island anxious for independence but fearful of cutting itself adrift in what might prove to be not merely an unknown but a stormy sea. inventory #7578 Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket With A Small Piece Missing From the Top Spine.
