520 1 $a"Set mostly in the U.S. Virgin Islands, the stories in this debut are lyrical, lush, and haunting. The inhabitants of an island walk into the sea. A man passes a jail cell's window, shouldering a wooden cross. And in the international shop of coffins, a story repeats itself, pointing toward an inevitable tragedy. Part oral history, part postcolonial narrative, How to Escape from a Leper Colony is ultimately a loving portrait of a wholly unique place."--BOOK JACKET.
