Several themes thread through this collection of seven short stories: coming of age, infidelity and betrayal, innocence, prejudice and power, and (of course) the power of love. The stories are beautifully crafted, combining form and substance with intrigue and suspense. Some stories combine simplicity of setting, like a bus ride, with rich characters filled with raw, robust emotion. Other stories will take you on a cultural journey, teaching the old ways of England and the Caribbean across a continuum of generations, diversities, and time. The stories will draw you in, make you feel, teach you something about courage, and then leave you feeling like you have just said farewell to some old friends-like all great stories do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eVernella Fuller was born in Saint Catherine, Jamaica, in 1956.
