Quote:
"Frances-Anne Solomon's A Winter Tale continues the Antillean preoccupation with race and community or belonging, but the location is changed to Toronto and the problem here, is that of shaping a group and an ethos of responsibility within the social complex. The murder of an innocent forces the community into a discourse on violence and the need to counteract violence to achieve new relationships between Caribbean peoples in the diaspora. The poster of the young boy is placed strategically as a repeated icon that fixes the narrative on the consequences for the future if communities do not come together in dialogue and take responsibility for self-analysis and self-healing. Migration is foregrounded as a battleground for the Caribbean person in the formation of nascent communities."
