These nine short stories explore the often transient Caribbean
experience, both from the perspective of those who have left the
islands and returned and those who are dealing with the
repercussions of their decisions not to leave. The characters speak
with a self-conscious honesty about their choices and peer in from
the outer edges of Caribbean society to discuss everything from the
homophobic element of the Rastafarian movement to their personal
desires to escape restrictive Caribbean definitions of their own
personas. All of the stories share a common plea for
tolerance.
