Bethany Bettany
0 - Default Title
Description
Bethany Bettany is five years old when her father dies and her mother leaves her to fend for herself in the Abrahams household. The place simmers with resentment: her uncles and aunts think her mother killed her father; her grandmother refuses to leave her room. Bethany is the scapegoat for it all.
In Bethany D'Aguiar has created both a loveable character and a symbol for the search of a nation to make itself whole. If Boundary is Guyana then Bethany Bettany - a girl torn between two names - is the spirit of its people poised for flight.
