Summary:
"A stunning work of imaginative fiction,
Last
Hummingbird
West
of
Chile
spins a tale of adventure that is in turn comedic, violent, poignant and thoughtful. Through the exploits of a young sailor born in questionable circumstance and a pair of murderous servants, as well as an assortment of other 19th century regulars, the vital subjects of today--race, religion, sexuality, environment--are framed in history and human culture. Through narration by human protagonists, a tree, a
hummingbird
, various beasts, and the landscape itself, Ruddock tells a story of colonialism and environment, brutality and privilege, and the best and worst of human nature."--P. [4] of cover.
