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. Written
as a series of letters from the child Sunshine to her absent
mother, Aunt Jen traces the changing attitudes of a child entering
adulthood as she tries to understand the truth behind her mother's
departure, and make sense of her relationship with her family. Aunt
Jen migrated to England as part of the Windrush generation, and
Sunshine's letters, written in the early 1970s, reveal something of
the emotional as well as the physical gulf between those who left
and those who remained behind. A companion novel to Letters Home,
Aunt Jen is a painfully one-sided correspondence, revealing the
complex inheritance we pass on to our children. Suitable for
readers aged 14 and above.
