In his third collection of stories, Earl McKenzie tours the rural Jamaican world in which he was raised, and he also ventures further out. The characters we meet include young scholars who are caught up in the turbulence of cultural relativism, homophobia and madness, the nature of evil and generational conflicts about religious beliefs. We are shown the impact of political violence on the life of a Rastafarian, and we meet a group of men in the country who are determined to carry out the wishes of a dead man. These stories will entertain and provoke thought.
