Summary

ONE OF STYLIST'S BEST NEW BOOKS FOR 2020

'It made me ugly cry' JESSIE BURTON
'Glorious' RACHEL JOYCE
'Spellbinding' ANDRÉ ACIMAN

Meet the Ramdin-Chetan family: forged through loneliness, broken by secrets, saved by love.

Irrepressible Betty Ramdin, her shy son Solo and their marvellous lodger, Mr Chetan, form an unconventional household, happy in their differences, as they build a home together. Home: the place where your navel string is buried, keeping these three safe from an increasingly dangerous world. Happy and loving they are, until the night when a glass of rum, a heart to heart and a terrible truth explodes the family unit, driving them apart.

Brave and brilliant, steeped in affection, Love After Love asks us to consider what happens at the very brink of human forgiveness, and offers hope to anyone who has loved and lost and has yet to find their way back.

A beautiful study in love and loneliness in South Trinidad. Far from the bustle of Port-of-Spain and the feting and liming and steel pans and carnival for which Trinidad and Tobago is so synonymous, is this reconstituted family of introverts struggling to find and keep love and overcome their loneliness. Who ultimately find meaning through the relationships they have with each other. A cleber twist on the classic 'blood is thicker than water' family saga, hearing the Trini accents and expression also made this audiobook a real treat!

Wonderful tale, wonderful narrated
