The Armstrong Trilogy collects in one volume, for the first time and as the author intended, three novels of acknowledged brilliance. Set in Georgetown, Cuyana, it chronicles the events within the Armstrong family and in the world at large that determine each individual's destiny. The story begins in "From the Heat of the Day" with the marriage of Sonny and Gladys Armstrong, and then follows the Armstrong children - the son, Rohan, in "One Generation," and the daughter in "Genetha" - as each tries to escape the family legacy of sadness and doom. Intense and moving, this remarkable saga is the work of a consummate storyteller in full command of his powers.
