CanePieter Van Leyden grew up on a Caribbean sugar cane plantation with slave Joss, and his family, as friends. After four years of schooling in Holland, Pieter returns to his home at Spinnaker Plantation where he and Joss become lovers. Pieter's father Nicolaas discovers the affair and banishes Pieter and then sells Joss. When Nicolaas dies, Pieter returns to Spinnaker, but there is no record of Joss' sale. Never in agreement with slave ownership, Pieter traveled to Louisiana. With few jobs available, Pieter settles for plantation manager at the Morning Star. To his surprise, the plantation is owned by Sebastin Cane, a man Pieter had met in Holland and was still attracted to. Pieter also discovers that Joss is a slave on the plantation as well.
Cane is a compelling story of denied freedom. Stevie Woods illustrates an extraordinary view of the mind-set maintained by most plantation owners, who believed slaves were property in the same category as farm animals and tools. Deprived of his human rights because he is gay, Pieter does everything in his power to change the closed minds pertaining to the lack of civil rights for the slaves. Cane is a romance story with a potent reminder that the same mind-set displayed in this historical account still continues today. This is an outstanding saga that I enjoyed immensely.
