Dark, lanky, and bald, New York-raised photographer Sabre Cumberbatch can’t tell if she’s highly talented or just highly Instagrammable. Up to here with art critics and their gaseous praise, Sabre returns to Barbados, her childhood island home, to water her roots. She needs to quell self-doubt by doing something—anything—profoundly important. Welcoming her with bejeweled open arms is her aunt Aggie, a fearsome high-society attorney eager to show off her famous American niece. When Sabre witnesses Aggie unleash her wrath on the household staff over a minor mistake, Sabre finds her cause.

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.
