Lament For Rastafari and Other Plays by Edgar White

Lament for Rastafari is part-ritual, part-panoramic vision of black/white relations within the confines of Rastafarian consciousness. It begins in the West Indies and follows the trials and tribulations of black families as they move from their island communities to London and finally to New York.

Edgar White was born in the West Indies. He has lived in the United States and England. His plays have been successfully presented in New York, London and Africa. Other books by Edgar White also available from Marion Boyars include Redemption Song and other plays and The Rising.
