~ Winner of the OCM Bocas Prize for Caribbean Literature for Non-Fiction - 2020
Shame On Me: An Anatomy of Race and Belonging
Interrogating our ideas of race through the lens of her own multi-racial identity, critically acclaimed novelist Tessa McWatt turns her eye on herself, her body, and our increasingly divided world . . .
Shame On Me is a personal and powerful exploration of history and identity, colour and desire, from a writer who, having been plagued with confusion about her race all her life, has at last found kinship and solidarity in story.
"One of the most moving and intellectually profound books of its kind, it operates with surgical precision upon the necrotic legacies of race, affirming kinship and solidarity against the ongoing violence of silence and denigration.” -- David Chariandy, award-winning author of Brother
