This collection of poetry, portrayed as eighteen interviews with employees at a resort development, examine the effect of the tourism industry on Bahamian identity. Created with text extracted from interviews run through a voice recognition software, the resulting distorted and fragmented language used to talk about building a resort development in The Bahamas felt closer to lived reality than any accurate transcription. This is a work of satire. Names, characters, businesses, places, events, locales, and incidents are either the products of the author's imagination or used in a fictitious manner. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.
