Sweet Diamond Dust

 

I love Rosario Ferre. She was a great Puetro Rican writer. I loved the soap opera drama The House on the Lagoon and especially her short story collection The Youngest Doll. This was good too. It's a collection of short stories that revolve around a sugar mill. My favorite story was the last one Captain Candelario's Heroic Last Stand about two friends in the military, one is rich and the other one poor. Their relationship is challenged when there are orders to stop the salsa dance. Sadly not many of her works are translated.
