| Virgin Islands Tales of Ghosts, Hauntings, and
Jumbees, Joan A. Medlicott and David S. Sasso, 1995, line art, glossary, 79 pp. THIS BOOK IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE. WHEN IT IS REPRINTED WE'LL LET YOU
KNOW. |
|
| A delightful collection of true ghost tales as well as some
traditional stories from the islands. The fighting coffins. The bitter ghost of a suicide
who refused to go away. The angel of Death in a white terry-cloth robe. A jumbee is a
ghost or evil spirit capable of entering a human body. In one story, a betrayed wife
brings one home in a bottle. A subtle use of dialect and the helpful footnotes will make
you feel like an Island insider. |
