Encapsulating life in the Caribbean in the last decades of the 20th
century, these pieces, collected from the highly popular weekly
column "In Our Time," are carefully infused with a poet's delight
in the power of language and a craftsman's regard for meticulous
structure. Deliberately blurring the lines between fiction and
reality, these stories form an unrivalled portrait of a rapidly
changing Caribbean society. Invoking memories to resurrect the
people and places the author has known or loved, this is a seminal
work from a mentor to a whole generation of West Indian authors.
