i'm looking for descriptions of markets in the Caribbean (in fiction or
non-fiction) that offer more than a clinical sort of treatment. i want
quotes/pieces that try to give you a sense of the look, and sound and
smells. Any ideas?
I know that there are several African novels where much of the action
takes place in the "market square" and you truly give the sense of being
there. Are there west indian equivalents (mckay's bita i know spends
some time walking through the market in banana bottom, are there other
works that have scenes like that)?
thanks,
kihika
