Taino

by Donald H. Sullivan

This is a historical fiction novella about the Taino people before, during, and after the arrival of Columbus. It tells of Migua and Surani, a young Taino couple of Kiskeya (Hispaniola); and Anoki and Aiyana, a young Taino couple of Boriken (Puerto Rico) and the many adventures, dangers, and hardships they must face. It also tells of an affair between a young member of Columbus's crew and a Taino girl, and how their affair intertwines with Migua and Surani. The book also touches on the culture and history of the Taino, about whom we know so little.
