book description

This collection of short stories by award-winning writer Lawrence Scott delves into a Caribbean world filled with yearnings, memories, escapades, and returns. The narratives are woven with the complex threads of religion, race, sexuality, and crime, creating a tapestry of stories that explore the disturbing tensions within the Caribbean society. Scott's prose is sensuous, evocative, and characterized by a lightness of touch and tone that brings depth and illumination to the narratives.
