Last Cool Days

By John Stewart and John O. Stewart

Book Overview

Set in 1952 in colonial Trinidad, this novel explores the barriers between black and white in a highly stratified and racially demarcated society. Marcus is a young black village boy who gets fatefully attracted by the strangeness and the privileges of white children in his neighbourhood. The awkwardness and instability of this relationship reinforce his sense of insecurity and alienation, instilling in him an adult rage that leads to tragedy.
