A Kind of Homecoming is a memoir written by Eustace Edward Ricardo Braithwaite, a Guyanese novelist, diplomat, and teacher. The book describes Braithwaite's return to his home country of Guyana after spending many years living and working abroad. Braithwaite reflects on his childhood in Guyana, his experiences as a student in England, and his career as a diplomat in the United States and Africa. He also discusses the political and social changes that occurred in Guyana during his absence, including the rise of socialism and the struggles of the Afro-Guyanese community. Through his personal experiences and observations, Braithwaite provides a vivid portrait of Guyana and its people, as well as an insightful commentary on the challenges facing postcolonial societies. A Kind of Homecoming is a poignant and thoughtful memoir that offers a unique perspective on the complexities of identity, belonging, and cultural heritage.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
