Tobacco Wars is a novella about the meeting of two worlds. Set in the early 17th century, it follows the mythical and rollicking adventures of Pocahontas and playwright Ben Jonson - from the inns, alleyways and royal courts of London to pirates, perilous crossings and hostile warriors in the new world. And as worlds are turned upside down and irrevocably altered - a new commodity - tobacco, intoxicates the old world at the same time as an 'Indian princess' undertakes her own age of exploration.

The past, the present, and the future elide across each other here, sweeping up, around, and over each other as the story continues. The earth is born, tobacco is brought to the New World, an Indian princess travels the seas to London where she captivates the King's playwright who follows her to the New World to win her love. Each bit of story is framed in different ways, and each framing illuminates all the different parts that make up a story, a folk tale, a legend, a myth.
Lovely writing and plenty to think about. ( )
