Back to Suriname

In 1982, my family and I hastily left Suriname after the infamous December Murders. In the decades afterwards, I revisited the country four times: in 1996, 1997, 2011, and in 2012.

The essays and chronicles in this book reflect my thoughts and impressions with regard to my returns as an adult to Suriname, the country in which I grew up from 1972 to 1982.

Mind that Suriname was previously known as Dutch Guiana, being one of the three Guianas in South America. The other two Guianas are British Guiana (today called Guyana), and French Guiana (in French called La Guyane).

Suriname and Guyana are independent, sovereign countries. La Guyane is still an overseas department of France, and a de facto colony.
