There have been many great and enduring works of literature by
Caribbean authors over the last century. The Caribbean Contemporary
Classics collection celebrates these deep and vibrant stories,
overflowing with life and acute observations about society.
Fifteen-year-old Shell tells his story directly and we see things
through his eyes - his confused feelings first for Rosalie, and
then for Joan, his distress about the illness and death of his
father, and his admiration tempered by fear of Mr Gidharee,
Rosalie's father. This iconic, universal 'coming of age' novel
conveys the confusion of a teenager growing to maturity, and the
difficult choices that have to be made. Shell is gradually led out
of childhood and into a deeper understanding of the human
condition. Suitable for readers aged 14 and above.
