Prose in the Key of Life, Volume One, is the first installment of short stories by artist and hobbyist writer, Roland P. Joseph. The stories are set against Trinidad and Tobago's cultural and social landscape and are gleaned from real-life experiences. -The Kidnap Miracle: Mrs. Pearl Rampersad, a genteel middle-aged housewife grapples with mid-life insecurities. She seeks comfort in the arms of a thuggish youth who blackmails her and places her family in grave danger. -A Song in a Storm: Kerron Ali, a.k.a. Ocean Samuel, a talented youth from an impoverished village in Trinidad, wins a prize in a local talent contest to audition for a New York music producer. He soon realizes that the glitz and fame of stardom comes with too high a price. He returns home to Trinidad and discovers that the serene life he took for granted is crumbling before his eyes. -Indiscretions of a Carnival Queen: The marriage of a former Carnival Queen, Annabelle Castello, to a motorcar magnate forty years her senior, ends in a bitter divorce. In an attempt to rekindle her lost youth, she befriends a young notorious playboy who brings excitement and intrigue to her life along with an unpleasant surprise. -Secrets of a Frantic Housewife: Originally planned as the pilot for a local soap opera, The Wives of Ocean View, the story unfolds in an affluent residential area in South Trinidad where one of the residents, Chandra Lutchman craves social acceptance and the high life but must hide a deep dark secret not only from her neighbours, but from her husband.
