This novel of Trinidad, written by a young native of the island, brings us a scene completely new to fiction and characters who are strikingly, delightfully original. It is the story of sixteen-year old Tiger and his dark-haired child bride, Urmilla, grappling with the mysteries of married life in a Trinidadian village. Poverty and carefree fun, swift tragedy and quiet poetry, mingle in their honest and amusing story.
