The Mandari Chronicles - £19.99
This is a collection of short stories which takes a whimsical look at life within an extended Black Jamaican family in Britain.
Written in English with Jamaican patois dialogue, the stories capture the unique sense of humour of Black people in situations which wouldn’t ordinarily be considered humorous.
Â
Subjects as diverse as funerals and family holidays are featured and we take a look at the interactions between various generations, while highlighting the strong bonds of love and respect that bind them together.
