Brown Face Big Master

Joyce Gladwell grew up in Jamaica, a "brown face" in a country where black and white were often at opposite ends of the social scale. "Big Master" (in the country dialect she used as a child) is God. First published in 1969, this open, forth-right story of her life reveals a deep awareness of some of the major social issues and personal problems of our time--race, color, human relationships, mixed marriage, the search for God.
