From the author of Crick
Crack, Monkey
- Celebrating the small, hidden lives that make the world a better place

A beautiful new novel from the author of Crick Crack, Monkey, this is a Trinidadian story about island life and lives, that revisits and revisions the colonial world from a womanist perspective - tragic, comic, warm and wise, but always in struggle for better must come.This is the story of one woman's life; that of Gwyneth Cuffie, a seemingly ordinary woman: teacher, lover of children and music, and pillar of her community. Beautifully written and deeply compassionate, the novel follows Gwynneth's life, as she charts her own path through the turbulent times of her island and struggle against colonialism.
