About this listen

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.

Just finished this well-narrated collection of short stories. Chapters 2, 5 and 11 were standout for me.
