      <![CDATA[<a href="http://www.nassaulibrary.org/eastwillblog/assets_c/2011/12/pirates daughter-thumb-113x172-1110.png"><img alt="Thumbnail image for pirates daughter.png" src="http://www.nassaulibrary.org/eastwillblog/assets_c/2011/12/pirates daughter-thumb-113x172-1110-thumb-113x172-1111.png" width="113" height="172" class="mt-image-left" style="float: left; margin: 0 20px 20px 0;" /></a><strong><big>The Pirate's Daughter, by Margaret Cezair-Thompson</big></strong>

In 1946, Hollywood's most famous swashbuckler, Errol Flynn, arrived in Jamaica in a storm-ravaged boat. After a long and celebrated career on the silver screen, Flynn spent the last years of his life on a small island off the Jamaican coast, where he fell in love with the people, the paradisiacal setting, and the privacy, and brought a touch of Tinseltown glamour to the West Indian community. 

Based on those years, The Pirate's Daughter imagines an affair between the aging matinee star and Ida, a beautiful local girl. Flynn's affections are unpredictable but that doesn't stop Ida from dreaming of a life with him, especially after the birth of their daughter, May.

Margaret Cezair-Thompson weaves stories of mothers and daughters, fathers and lovers, country and kin, into this compelling, dual-generational coming-of-age tale of two women struggling to find their way in a nation wrestling with its own independence.]]>
