Description
The Mermaid of Black Conch by Monique Roffey
In the Caribbean village of St Constance, a young fisherman's song attracts a mysterious sea-dweller. For centuries, a beautiful mermaid has been cursed to live in the sea, entranced by the sound of human voices. When she hears the fisherman's song, her fascination proves to be her undoing.
A chance encounter with American tourists leads to a fierce battle, and the mermaid is pulled from the sea. The fisherman rescues her, and as she begins to transform into a woman, he wins her trust. This powerful novel explores themes of unconditional love, friendship, family, and loss, without sentimentality.
