      About This Book

      Tales of thwarted desires, repressed passions and betrayals evoke a troubled Caribbean paradise. The legacy of a cruel history haunts this new world society. Individuals are consumed by their own emotions and confused by the shifting ground of their own cultures. With a blend of pathos and ironic humor, Lawrence Scott describes life in this fallen Eden, where both the melancholy and the extravagant play their part.
