This award-winning collection of Barbadian stories showcases the controversial and often hidden aspects of a Caribbean paradise. Love, relationships and the human condition are explored through surprisingly humorous narratives on politics in the rum shop, sex-tourism, domestic abuse and much more. Shakirah Bourne writes in a satirical and humorous style that is brilliantly realised through the voice talents of Levi King, Janelle Gilkes and Ayesha Gibson-Gill. Featuring authentic Barbadian accents, that bring the author's style of wry humour from the 'mouth of babes' to life, the audiobook is also enhanced by atmospheric sound. Special bonus story.
