On Friday Night

"Paulette A. Ramsay and Anne-María Bankay have made a truly invaluable contribution by translating this novel – making it available to English-speaking audiences in the Caribbean and beyond. Chiriboga deserves to be read more widely. An important Afro-Latin American novelist, she addresses difficult and even controversial issues within a framework that poignantly illuminates how the dynamics of race, class, gender and sexuality affect black women’s lives. I can't wait to expose my students to this book in courses I teach on the African Diaspora and Black Feminism/Womanism."
     – Faye V. Harrison, Director of African American Studies | Professor of Anthropology, University of Florida
