Inside this book are stories involving a colourful cast of crooks and clowns who populated a small village on the Caribbean island of Trinidad. In the hands of an experienced storyteller, their faults are funny, and their tales are twisted. You get an insider's view of tight-knit community during one summer when a traveling preacher from New York comes to town. He challenges the reigning power of an obeah (voodoo) practitioner who has long held the island in thrall to her mystical powers. You rarely hear hometown tales presented with such fun and humour. Thomas helps us to put our everyday struggles and hardships into perspective--all the while laughing ourselves to life.
