| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "A High Wind in Jamaica" by Richard Hughes is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in Jamaica during the time of Emancipation and provides a vivid portrayal of the aftermath of colonialism, particularly through the eyes of a family living on a decaying plantation. The focus is on the Bas-Thornton family, especially the children, as they navigate their childhood in a landscape marked by both beauty and decay. At the start of the novel, the reader is introduced to the crumbling remnants of plantation life post-Emancipation. Specific focus is given to Derby Hill, once a prosperous estate, now overgrown and barely inhabited by the aging Miss Parkers. We see glimpses of life on a neighboring estate, Ferndale, highlighting the chaotic yet adventurous existence of the Bas-Thornton children amidst the backdrop of nature and remnants of the past. The children engage in exploration and play, reflecting both the innocence of childhood and the stark realities of their environment, such as encounters with local flora and fauna, the remnants of an unjust social order, and the deep inequalities embedded in Jamaican society. Such contrasting images set the stage for a rich narrative exploring themes of innocence, colonial history, and the clash between the world of children and the harsh adult realities surrounding them.
