Broken Gourds is inspirational folklore. Written in the tradition of Steinbeck's Cannery Row, this inspirational folklore is a story of humanity mirrored in the events of one small farming village of Jamaica. In the story, the author considers the role of the intuitive mind in the form of a lowly healer whose mission is to empower the oppressed while fostering harmony and hope. As the story develops, his success attracts the temptations . . . greed, hate, lust, and jealousy . . . that power positions bring. These he must struggle to overcome. Broken Gourds is an inspirational folklore of change and permanence, love and hate, peace and pestilence. It is, indeed, a story of life. Those very elements, which rocked that multi-ethnic community a century ago, are still at the very core of all society, of life, today.
