nThe A List edition of Harold Sonny Ladoos enduring novel, a raw, unsentimental story of life in a small Caribbean community. Featuring a new introduction by David Chariandyn nSet in the Eastern Caribbean at the beginning of the twentieth century, No Pain Like this Body describes the perilous existence of a poor rice-growing family during the August rainy season. Their struggles to cope with illness, a drunken and unpredictable father, and the violence of the elements end in unbearable loss.n nThrough vivid, vertiginous prose, and with brilliant economy and originality, Ladoo creates a fearful world of violation and grief, in the face of which even the most despairing efforts to endure stand out as acts of courage.n
