Millie’s Quest

“Who am I really?” That is the burning question that absorbs the mind of young Millie even as her talent for writing folklore is discovered and nurtured. She becomes something of a celebrity in her village in the heart of rural Trinidad as her stories get published in the newspapers. “If only her real daddy would see them and be moved to make himself known to her!” That’s her most fervent wish. How that would affect her life and the life of others is not of immediate concern. Her mother’s stubborn reticence to reveal his identity is beyond her comprehension. Her ambition is to become a teacher, but romance gets in the way, and she marries and goes to live in Sangre Grande. There, she picks up clues that she hopes will lead her to the identity of her real father. Her experiences make her realize that society’s prejudice against illegitimacy has its roots in religious practices which she would like to change. She also must develop ways of coping with a difficult situation as her marriage is in jeopardy.
