Book Cover & Preview Text
Dear met Bru Nansi under the big old tarmun tree at the foot of Raphune Hill. Dear and Bru Nansi trecked up through Raphune road shady trees and maintained their diet by tasting all the accessible guinep bunches with filipino fruit. Dear wore her boomerang crown that depicts seven berries, one for each community she represents as bamboula queen. With this crown, Dear could travel across estates without having to pay road tax. Her accompanying entourage also travels free. With no time to waste Dear and Bru Nansi incorporated their greeting into their walk toward the hillside. It was a hot sunny day just after the summer rains that Reign Dear chose to wander through the hill sides looking for guavaberries for the Christmas season feasts tarts and beverages. Reign Dear carefully hopped, skipped, and jumped over the low catch and keep, man-better-man, and parted kasha and Christmas bush thorns sometimes carrying Bru Nansi on her back. Bru Nansi was good at getting to the top of the trees to pick the ripe berries but was not good at hiking through thick bushes. Too often he would get stuck by catch and keep or kasha thorns. But with determination they tunneled through vines, navigated treacherous embankments, slippery green slopes, and red dry river beds to reach Nullyburg Ridge.

About the Book
Bru Nansi’s Revival is a treat! The plot mixes past and present class conflicts into satirical entertainment for all ages. Chunky human and animal role reversal imagery reveals the cancel culture spirit of unity that stops the old imperialism and jump-starts a new kinder kingdom. Within the backdrop of historical references and benchmarks, this cultural tale mixes church and state traditions to recreate a lifestyle drama set in a 1700s colonial neighborhood. In this community, the natives become multilingual to communicate with the conquistadores. So, the texts present a treasure trove of multilingual words that capture the ambience of the era. Bru Nansi’s Revival is retold in African and European languages that are relevant to the setting.
