和玩具一起旅行 was the subject of a 每月之书特辑 on the William & Mary website in spring. 旅行 这本书由芝加哥大学出版社出版。 它的主人公是托伊·亚历山大,一个住在法属圭亚那卡宴郊区的男人。 图伊是萨拉玛卡人中著名的医生,他们以治疗疾病而闻名。 The Saramaka, 价格 writes, are one of several Maroon people in the Caribbean—descendants of escaped slaves.

普莱斯一年中的大部分时间都住在马提尼克岛,他对生活在南美洲大陆法属圭亚那和苏里南的萨拉马卡人有大约35年的经验。 价格’s relationship with Tooy Alexander began with a request from a Martinique businessman for him find a Saramaka curer to address what he believed was a curse on his operations.
