This collection of short stories captures the experiences, struggles, challenges, and views of the working class in Caribbean and Latin American countries. The short stories are an attempt to present the voices on the fringe-the marginalized and forgotten. The uniqueness of the book lies in the stories transcending language and geographical barriers. This is evident as the stories are based in different countries, including Martinique, Mexico, Honduras, Barbados, Guyana, Cuba, Belize, St. Vincent, Suriname, and Haiti.Folklore, superstition, humor, and local dialects are interwoven in these fictional accounts. These lively stories explore the themes of culture, superstition, sport, religion, love, gender, morals, ethnicity, class, and politics. For most of the stories, the setting in the rural areas of the Caribbean is a deliberate attempt to delve into the unique atmosphere that influences decisions and lifestyles. The characters display resilience, ingenuity, and attempt to understand their conditions, status, and society.
