Johnson
came to England from Trinidad when
she was eleven. In
1983
she set off for a six month
journey in the Caribbean. From the moment she steps
off the plane into Carnival fever7, we are caught up in
the excitement of her journey: her reunion with her
mother, the exhilaration of dancing all night to calypso
on the streets of Port-of-Spain
. . .
But she cannot
escape, nor wants to, from the inheritance of
colonialism: the chattel houses in Barbados; an old sugar
mill in Tobago
-
The hub was still stained with the dried
syrup, blood which had been wrung ounce by ounce
from the life of Africans, man, woman or child .
Her time in the Caribbean is also a journey of the self.
The quest for memory* is as powerful as the desire to
escape: My emotions would knot and turn, twist and
fragment in the whirlpool of experience. At times, I felt
like a ghost who was haunting herself. As her trip
draws to a close, she describes with courage and
eloquence her attempts to reunite the selves that have
been separated by different cultures.
