On the day the years of physical and emotional abuse became public, Karl Taylor knew that his life had changed forever more. Finally realising how scarred his life has been at the hands of both his parents, he suddenly leaves, feeling his need for a break, a separation that will become just the beginning of his voyage of self-discovery. Embarking on a journey that will take him across Central and Eastern Africa, Karl's quest into the Motherland starts to ask challenging questions of who he is, raises the spectres of his history as he understands why he is, and gifts him the first embers of who he is truly meant to be. Rich in creativity and depth, MOTHERLAND, written by Dwight Turner, is an in-depth study of what it is to be an Afro-Caribbean man in the modern age, asking questions about the barriers to manhood faced from without and within, and asks how as a culture one might move beyond them.
