Om Love's Last Messenger and other stories

In this, his fifth collection of short stories, Earl McKenzie explores themes such as filial and romantic love, thanksgiving, education, community and the relation between the visual arts and society. We meet four members of a family who give their own perspectives on an estranged son; a man who mourns the death of the first woman he loved; a poet who seeks the forgiveness of a woman he once hurt; a yam farmer who cannot forget a kindness; and a young Rastafarian artist who mounts an exhibition of his paintings in the square of his home district. A variety of storytelling techniques are used to offer these vivid interpretations of Jamaican life.
