I Used to Live in Heaven: Letters to My Granddaughters

An unusually researched and written book about the twin island state of Trinidad and Tobago in the Caribbean, where citizens grew from a heavenly lifestyle under colonialism to face an uncertain faith as an independent Republic. This unique book is a narrative of letters written by a concerned grandfather to his five granddaughters (he has no grandsons) in which he tells of his Republic's joys, sorrows, and its squander mania. His letters reflect his pains as well as his desires for his granddaughters and equally his Republic. In his letters he is both a passionate observer and 'fire fighter', seasoned by years of struggle who is well empowered to face the grim period, which he aptly labels disaster days. These moving letters also speak to the rights of women and his advise to his women - his granddaughters.
