Panama Fever Reviews & Testimonials

"Love pushes people through life, but that's not the sole thing that drives them. … Riveting reading, "Panama Fever" is an excellent story that should be strongly considered.”

"With a sentence, Garvey has the ability to set an intense emotional mood . . .

 

“Garvey’s novel is not just accurate and moving historical fiction. Panama Fever is a humanitarian piece of art, with as many lyrical crests and valleys as a string ensemble, and as equally vivid and dreary as a South American panoramic view of the rainforest.”

Christina Hall / NewPages.com


Reading Panama Fever, I was transported within a few pages to a different place and time, which is what good fiction does."

Rupert Lewis, historian, author and Caribbean scholar


“A finely orchestrated work that combines meticulous research into the history of the building of the Panama canal, with stories of the courageous West Indian men and women who laboured to build it. W.B. Garvey has created a vivid and moving testament to some of history's unsung heroes and heroines.”

— Lorna Goodison, author of “From Harvey River” and  “Tamarind Season”
