Rosa Guy’s tropical retelling of "The Little Mermaid" is the
gorgeous, tragic love story of Désirée, a beautiful peasant
girl who devotes herself to the handsome, aristocratic young
man whose life she has saved. When his upper-class fami-ly
feels that Désirée’s skin is too dark and her family too
poor for a boy destined for power and wealth, Désirée proves
that she is willing to give everything for love. This lovely
reprint will break your heart. Born in Trinidad,
Rosa Guy has written 15 novels and has received the
Coretta Scott King Award, and The New York Times Outstanding
Book of the Year citation.
