Description

Set in the Caribbean - from Jamaica to Trinidad, Barbados to Dominica, the author's birthplace - this sparkling collection of stories from one of the Caribbean's foremost cultural activists is full of surprises, both in style and intent. Written across five decades, the characters and plots have a compelling intimacy and warmth that reflect the tragedies and triumphs of the region. As Colin Channer, the Jamaican writer and founder of the Calabash festival puts it: 'With this collection, he is allowing us into the attic and cellar of his imagination, where he has stored astonishing histories and legacies. We are all the richer for his generosity, storytelling, grace, and for the artistic impulse beating at these stories' heart.'
