 "ON A BRIGHT January morning in 1989 the strands of THERESA Vaval’s life tangled together in riotous climax. She received her doctorate in social anthropology from Harvard; Wellesley confirmed that she had a professorial appointment there, with an implied promise of tenure track if she enhanced her scholarly reputation; her father, Hyacinthe Vaval, received notice that he and his family would be granted permanent residence in the United States, which they had entered seven years ago after temporary refuge in Canada; and Dennis Krey, professor of creative writing at Yale, had at last summoned up courage to inform his Concord, New Hampshire, parents that he and Tessa, as she was known to her college friends, were getting married. As if that wasn’t enough, the Swedish Lines had phoned, offering her an opportunity to teach a course aboard one of their cruise ships, the S.S. Galante, set to sail from Cap-Haïtien, Haiti, on 30 January. One hundred and thirty-seven students had signed up for the three-credit, fourteen-day course, entitled ‘Cruise-and-Muse in Paradise.’ ‘We’ll do the cruising, you do the musing,’ the Swedish Lines representative had joked, telling Theresa that she would be the most honored among six lecturers already signed up."~~~James A. Michener: CARIBBEAN. Ch.16 The Golden Sea.
