Golden child
(Large Print)
Description
In rural Trinidad a family, quietly surviving, tries to live a decent life. Clyde, the father, works long, exhausting shifts at the petroleum plant in southern Trinidad; Joy, his wife, looks after the home. Their two sons are twins but nothing alike: Paul is considered odd; Peter is believed to be a genius. When Paul goes walking in the bush one afternoon and doesn't come home, Clyde goes looking for this child who he has never really understood. As Clyde begins to understand Paul's fate, his world shatters-- leaving him faced with a decision no parent should ever have to make. -- adapted from jacket
